A guide for this piece: about $181, 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.

A grin with four eyes
The varsity jacket was built for belonging; this one tells the world to keep its distance, and smiles while it does. The boa sleeves turn a sports garment into something soft and strange. It is humour, menace and craft in equal parts.
Best for: CPFM and SAINT MICHAEL collectors; oversized statement outerwear
Condition notes
Light signs of use; minor marks possible on close inspection. Light flattening to the boa pile.

The SAINT MICHAEL and Cactus Plant Flea Market varsity jacket, reference SM-YS1-0000-C08: a dark wool body, cream boa sleeves, and a back that sets a four-eyed yellow smiley, spattered in red, between the words Leave Me Alone. Tagged XL.
The Piece
The back is the jacket's centrepiece. LEAVE ME arches over the shoulders in cream gothic letters edged in black, ALONE answers beneath, and between them sits a large yellow chenille face with four eyes and a crooked grin, flecked with red as if splashed with paint.
The front continues the text. Down the left panel, stacked gothic lines read Try minding your own business for once in your life; on the right chest a smaller embroidered line carries the Saint Cactus name. The collar is a shirt-style point collar rather than rib, the snaps are cream, and navy and white striped rib closes the cuffs and hem. The sleeves are a deep cream boa pile, and the inside is quilted, with a woven label reading The Overwhelming Problem, Defiled by Saint Cactus.
Cactus Plant Flea Market is the label of Cynthia Lu, known for its four-eyed smiley; SAINT MICHAEL is the Tokyo label known for deliberately aged graphics.
