A guide for this piece: about $58, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

Sublime Meets Ridiculous
The tongue label says it plainly. A white canvas low-top, the most innocent shoe there is, armoured in rows of silver studs and set on a sole that looks half melted. Mihara Yasuhiro writes the joke into the shoe and lets wear finish it.
Best for: Collectors of Japanese designer sneakers and studded footwear

Studded low-top sneakers from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A15FW721: white canvas set with rows of silver domed studs, on the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 42, with the maker's box.
The Piece
The outer profile leads. Rows of small silver domes run in close lines across the quarters and around the heel, turning a plain white canvas low-top into something closer to a stage costume. Beneath it sits the house signature, the Original Sole: a deep rubber platform shaped by hand into a wavering, melted edge, here softened to a sandy patina by wear. A rubber toe cap rounds off the front.
Wide flat cream laces run through the eyelets. The MMY initials are moulded into the back of each heel, and the tongue carries the woven label reading Sublime meets Ridiculous, a fair summary of the whole design. The printed reference and size sit on the canvas lining.
Underneath, a geometric tread with a central maker plate shows the wear of use.

Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service. Import duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Japanese shoe sizes are given in centimetres of foot length, checked here by hand, and makers differ by half a size or more. Compare with a pair you already wear from the same maker and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our shoe size conversion chart sets Japan beside US, UK, EU and Korean sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
