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.

The Bomber Taken Apart
Mihara cuts the MA-1 along its seams and joins it again with snap eyelets, so a military classic reads as parts held together, still lined in its signal orange.

A reconstructed MA-1 flight jacket by Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A03BL072-9: khaki nylon taken apart and rebuilt around rows of metal snap eyelets, with the classic orange quilted lining, chocolate brown wool ribs and a pointed collar. Marked size 46.
The Piece
The MA-1 is one of the most copied garments of the twentieth century, and Mihara Yasuhiro answers it by dismantling it. Here the familiar bomber has been cut along its seams and joined again with snap eyelets, so the shoulders, sleeves and hem read as separate parts held together.
The silhouette is short and boxy, with a dropped shoulder, a utility pocket on the sleeve and slanted flap pockets at the front. A heavy zip runs the full front. Inside, the bright orange quilting stays true to the military original, and the Maison label sits at the neck. The ribbed cuffs and waistband are in a deep brown wool that warms the khaki shell.
