A guide for this piece: about $32, 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.

The Hermès Quick in black calfskin: the house's quietly famous low sneaker, with the H traced in saddle stitching across the side panels and a soft tan leather lining.
The Piece
Hermès introduced the Quick in the late 1990s, and it has remained one of the most recognisable sneakers in the house's ready-to-wear: a low, rounded runner made by shoemakers rather than sportswear factories. Its signature is the H outlined in contrast top-stitching across the quarter, a detail visible only to those who look, which suits the house's taste for understatement.
This pair is in smooth black calfskin with ivory stitching throughout, black flat laces and a lining of natural tan leather, with the Hermès Paris stamp on the footbed. The sole is the classic Quick unit in black rubber with a chevron tread, stitched rather than simply glued, and the toe and heel are shaped like a city shoe.
Leather this good develops character with wear, and the Quick is designed to be worn every day. It sits comfortably between tailoring and casual dress: with grey trousers and a knit, or with dark denim and a simple coat.
Tagged size 39.5 (European). The outsole measures about 27 cm in length, and the Quick generally fits true to size.

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. Clean with a soft dry cloth, feed the calfskin with a neutral cream and store with shoe trees.
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.
Japanese shoe sizes are given in centimetres of foot length, checked here by hand, and makers differ by half a size or more. Compare with a pair you already wear from the same maker and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our shoe size conversion chart sets Japan beside US, UK, EU and Korean sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
