A guide for this piece: about $54, 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.

Sculpture in Shadow
Cast entirely in black, the Original Sole stops shouting and starts to brood. The motto stitched inside, Sublime meets Ridiculous, still applies; it simply speaks more quietly here.
Best for: Collectors of Original Sole sneakers who prefer tonal black

The Hank low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A05FW702, in its darkest form: black canvas, black laces and a black hand-sculpted Original Sole, broken only by a cream strip at the toe. Size EU 43.
The Piece
The side profile leads. The Original Sole is the house signature, a vulcanised sole reimagined as if it had softened and been pressed back into shape by hand, so the foxing swells and ripples around the shoe like poured wax. Cast in black, the sculpting reads as shadow rather than outline: quieter than the white version, and heavier in feel.
The upper keeps the classic low-top pattern, with metal eyelets, wide black laces and a rubber toe cap in black over a narrow cream bumper strip, the one light note in the design. Inside the collar, a woven tab carries the house motto, Sublime meets Ridiculous, which might stand as a description of the shoe itself.
Beneath, the diamond tread has softened with use. It is the pair for someone who wants the Original Sole silhouette without the contrast, easy with black denim or tailored wool alike.
