A guide for this piece: about $69, 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 reversible three-button jacket made with Shantii for D.A.V.F.: one side printed with dense skulls on green twill, the other a soft grey boa.
The Piece
D.A.V.F., Decorated Armed Voluntary Forces, was Undercover's Autumn/Winter 2001 collection, and the jacket's own label says so in full. For it Jun Takahashi worked with Shantii, the Tokyo label known for its hand-drawn graphics, whose green patch is sewn inside alongside a pink skull badge.
One face is a stretch cotton twill printed all over with stacked skulls in black on slate green. Turn it inside out and it becomes a grey acrylic boa jacket with the same three-button front. It is cut as a soft tailored jacket with notch lapels, patch pockets and wooden-look buttons, with raw edges finished in the boa so that the lining becomes a trim on the printed side.
Tagged size L, a neat fit. Wear the skull face over a hooded sweatshirt or the boa face over a dark shirt.

Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Specialist clean only, to protect the print and the boa pile.

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 before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the garment laid flat, in centimetres.
