A guide for this piece: about $149, 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 half-and-half hybrid from the season collectors call Scab: printed sweatshirt jersey across the front, washed grey denim across the back, joined into one drawstring pair of trousers.
The Piece
Spring/Summer 2003 is the season Japanese collectors name Scab, after the patched, stitched-together surfaces that ran through Jun Takahashi's collection. It came at the high point of his Harajuku punk years, when garments were cut apart and rejoined as though one piece had been grafted onto another. Pieces from it rarely surface in wearable sizes, and the hybrid trousers are among the most sought after.
This pair is attributed to that season and carries the Undercoverism FOR REBELS label. The front is built from black and slate sweatshirt jersey in angled panels, printed with a mirror-reversed UNDERCOVER laurel emblem on one thigh and EGALITARIAN in red down the opposite shin. Turn it round and it becomes a five-pocket jean in washed grey denim, with a branded shank button and riveted coin pocket. A cord drawstring, a zip-fastened jersey pocket and raw-edged jersey hems complete the docking idea.
The care label reads size LARGE, 100% cotton, made in Japan by Undercover. The fit is a relaxed straight leg with a comfortable rise, easy to wear with a plain tee and boots or a heavy sneaker.

Authenticity & Care
The labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Cold hand wash inside out or specialist clean; dry flat away from sunlight to protect the print.
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 before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the pair laid flat, in centimetres. Measure jeans or trousers that already fit you the same way and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our jeans and trousers size guide reads waist and inseam in inches and centimetres, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
