A guide for this piece: about $62, 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.

Punk on a Melted Sole
Studs and spikes are the oldest armour in street style; set on the soft, melted line of the Original Sole they become theatre rather than threat, a Blakey dressed for the front row.
Best for: Collectors of statement Original Sole sneakers

The Blakey Low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A13FW729, in its most combative form: black canvas armoured with silver studs and cone spikes, set on the house's hand-sculpted Original Sole. Size EU 39.
The Piece
The three quarter view leads. Rows of polished pyramid studs cover the quarters and vamp, rising into sharp cone spikes along the eyestay and around the heel, so the shoe glints from every angle. Against them, the cream shell toe and the melted, uneven Original Sole look softer still, washed with a dirty finish that the house applies by hand.
Oversized white flat laces are threaded loosely and tied in a double loop. At the heel, cream leather tabs printed MMY sit above the spikes, and the tongue carries the woven MMY Footwear label with its Wearing Instructions. The lining is clean white, printed inside with the reference and size.
Studs and spikes belong to punk; the Blakey belongs to Mihara Yasuhiro. Together they make a sneaker that refuses to be ignored.
