A guide for this piece: about $126, 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 slogan spoken softly
The coloured versions shout the slogan; this one lets it surface only in raking light, which is closer to the spirit of the words. Made in Japan with a cupro lining, it is the version most likely to be worn for decades rather than displayed.
Best for: UNDERCOVER collectors; tonal black wardrobes

Jun Takahashi's autumn 2023 collaboration with the Danish artist Kamilla Tolnø, in the all-black version: a wool and cowhide varsity jacket whose message, A Wolf Will Never Be a Pet, is spelled across the back in black chenille that shows only when the light catches it. Reference UC2C4206-1, size 3.
The Piece
The back carries the sentence in three stacked lines of chenille capitals, black on black wool. Down the cowhide sleeves the two halves of the season's motto run in the same tonal letters, Chaos on one arm and Balance on the other, set vertically from shoulder to cuff. At the chest sits a single chenille emblem, again black.
The construction is classic and generous: a black melton body, smooth cowhide sleeves, welt pockets piped in leather, snaps down the front, and a heavy black rib at collar, cuffs and hem. Inside, a diamond-quilted cupro lining over polyester padding gives the jacket real warmth. Of Takahashi's many slogan varsity jackets, this is among the most restrained.
