A guide for this piece: about $181, 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 club that never existed
Ralph Lauren invents the institution and then dresses its members: a castle, a founding date, a set of initials that belong to no real team. The green and tan palette reads as old money rather than campus. It is the American varsity jacket seen through the lens of the English country club.
Best for: Ivy and preppy wardrobes; collectors of Polo heritage outerwear
Condition notes
Some signs of use; light marks may be present. Creasing and tonal variation to the tan leather at elbows and cuffs.

A Polo Ralph Lauren varsity jacket, reference 710916063001: forest green wool, tan cowhide sleeves with a mellow patina, and a back embroidered with a turreted castle beneath the letters R.L.A.F.C. and the date 1926. Tagged M.
The Piece
The back is composed like a club emblem. R.L.A.F.C. arcs across the shoulders in cream lettering, 1926 sits beneath it, and a three-towered castle in tan and brown thread fills the centre of the green wool, with POLO in cream capitals below.
The front carries a smaller heraldic programme: an embroidered crest with the Polo name on the left chest, lines of cream script on the right, and POLO again above the lower pocket. Snaps run from collar to hem, the slanted welt pockets are edged in leather, and green and cream striped rib closes the collar, cuffs and hem. The tan cowhide sleeves have been finished to show depth and variation, and the inside is lined in cotton canvas, with cupro and cotton in the sleeves.
Ralph Lauren has drawn on Ivy League and sporting club dress since the label's first years, and the varsity jacket remains one of the clearest expressions of that vocabulary.
