A guide for this piece: about $59, 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 long, peak-lapel black cotton jacket from Number (N)ine's Spring/Summer 2005 season, its lapels set with wire for shaping and its body lined in red and black silk houndstooth.
The Piece
Spring/Summer 2005 belongs to Miyashita's strongest run, between the Kurt and Give seasons and the later rock tailoring. Japanese collectors call it the Amy period, and its jackets develop the long, lean, slightly rumpled silhouette that became the label's signature. Tailoring from these years is consistently among the most collected Number (N)ine pieces.
This jacket is cut in a dense black cotton twill with a broad peak lapel, single-button closure and flap pockets. Wire is set into the lapels and collar so they can be bent and shaped, turned up against the neck or pressed flat, giving the jacket a deliberately lived-in movement. The inside is lined in 100% silk in a small red and black houndstooth, under the New York / Tokyo stitched script patch. The cuffs close with covered buttons.
At 84 cm long it sits well below the hip, closer to a short coat than a blazer, with narrow shoulders and slim sleeves. Over a tee or knit and narrow trousers it gives the exact proportion of the mid-2000s Miyashita look.

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. Dry clean only; reshape the wired lapels by hand.
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 garment laid flat, in centimetres. Lay a shirt or jacket you already love beside them and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size guide to tops and jackets turns pit-to-pit figures into US, UK, EU and Japanese sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
