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.

Two birds, safe home
Swallows were the sailor's promise of return, and they suit a souvenir jacket, a garment first made for men far from home. Here the Tokyo rock label strips everything else away: black on black, one pair of birds, one line of white. It is the quiet sukajan for someone who prefers a single good detail to a full panel.
Best for: Minimal dark wardrobes; RUDE GALLERY collectors
Condition notes
Fuzzing and light pilling to the rayon. Loose threads and fraying at an underarm seam, photographed.

A RUDE GALLERY BLACK REBEL souvenir jacket from Autumn and Winter 2015: black rayon woven with a tonal jacquard, a pair of swallows embroidered on the chest, and a fine white piping drawn down each sleeve. Tagged 2.
The Piece
This is the restrained side of the Tokyo label. Rather than a crowded back panel, the design lives on the front, where two swallows in gold, sky blue and cream fly toward each other across the zip, the old sailor's sign of a safe return home. The back is left plain so the black jacquard can do the work, its pattern catching light only as the cloth moves.
White piping runs from collar to cuff along the raglan line, and black rib closes the collar, cuffs and hem. Inside, a woven BLACK REBEL label and a Mr. Rebels tag sit above the RUDE GALLERY Tokyo neck label, which carries the 15 A/W season.
RUDE GALLERY grew out of Tokyo's rock and music scene, and its souvenir jackets carry that leaning: the classic Yokosuka form kept dark and close to the body.
