A guide for this piece: about $50, 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.

An Original Sole low top from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference C12FW717: khaki cotton canvas, an ecru toe cap, wide olive laces and a sculpted sole finished in a deliberately stained, tea-dark wash. Marked EU 39.
The Piece
Where the classic pair keeps its sole bright white, this one arrives looking as if it has already walked a long way. The hand-sculpted Original Sole, with its swells, folds and spreading toe, has been washed through with brown and grey so the ridges catch light and the hollows stay dark. Against it the khaki canvas and the pale toe cap read as quiet and military.
MMY is moulded into the back of each heel, and underneath the outsole is a navy diamond tread with the house's star mark. The wide flat laces in olive add weight to the silhouette.
Field khaki on an aged foundation, made to look lived in from the first wear.
