A guide for this piece: about $52, 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.

Suede with scales
atmos changes one thing about a classic and stops. On this Suede the nap is pressed into scales and the stripe glows like an ember. Everything else is left as PUMA drew it in 1968.
Best for: Sneaker collectors who follow atmos editions

The PUMA Suede VTG made with the Tokyo retailer atmos for Godzilla, reference 390479-01, in black with an upper textured like the monster's hide. Unworn, with its box, in 26.5 cm.
The Piece
The Suede is among the oldest silhouettes PUMA makes, and atmos has a long record of rebuilding it around a single idea. Here the idea is skin. The toe and quarters are embossed with an irregular scale pattern in place of smooth nap, and the formstrip along the side carries a molten gradient of red, green and gold, like heat showing through.
The heel tabs are grey with the leaping cat, backed in yellow on one shoe, and the insoles and tongue labels carry the collaboration marks. Gold PUMA lettering sits beside the lacing. The sole is the plain off white cupsole of the vintage model. The pair is photographed beside the soft vinyl Godzilla figure issued with this edition; its inclusion is being confirmed.

Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Japan 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; please 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.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally. More monsters in Tokusatsu Characters, and new pieces in Just Arrived.
