A guide for this piece: about $54, 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.

Clay in Smoke Grey
The house sole, modelled as if by hand and left to set, is usually bright white. Here it is washed in smoke grey, and the whole shoe settles into one tone, letting the rippled shape do all the talking.
Best for: Collectors of the Original Sole who prefer a tonal, understated pair

Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO low-top sneakers, reference C12FW717: grey canvas uppers with oversized flat laces, a grey rubber toe cap and the hand-sculpted Original Sole, here tinted a dusky grey to match. EU 41.
The Piece
The sole leads. Built in the house manner, it looks as if it had been modelled by hand from soft clay and left to set, with a rippled, slightly melting sidewall that rises and dips around the foot. Rather than the usual white, it has been washed in a smoky grey with violet undertones, so the whole shoe reads as a single tone.
Above it, the uppers are grey canvas with a rounded rubber toe cap in the same shade. Oversized flat laces in grey cotton run through metal eyelets, and the heel is embossed MMY in the sole. The tongue lining carries the house label, and the reference is printed inside.
A monochrome take on the familiar low-top, quiet in colour and loud in shape.
