A guide for this piece: about $20, 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 pullover hoodie from Kenzo in heather grey, with a yellow tiger and green collegiate lettering appliquéd across the back and a stacked 1970 patch on the chest. Size S, in good condition, and measured flat below.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the year is honoured here in the small patch on the left chest, its numerals stacked in green with a navy outline in the manner of a varsity letter. The Varsity collections, led by NIGO of A Bathing Ape, borrow the habits of the American campus and pair them with the house’s most recognisable emblem, the tiger.
At the back the beast is worked large: a yellow head with black stripes, a red mouth and a fringe of white whiskers, set beneath the word Kenzo in deep green capitals edged in navy. The raised, textured finish of the appliqué stands in pleasing contrast to the flat marl of the sweatshirt, so that the graphic reads clearly from a distance.
The hood is soft and generously cut, with a drawcord at the neck, and the cuffs and hem are finished in ribbing. The inside is brushed warm, as the photographs of the neck label show. It is a cosy, easy garment with a clear sense of humour, and the grey ground lets the colour of the tiger do the talking.
