A guide for this piece: about $46, 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 Hank Low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A09FW734: dove-grey canvas with raw, fraying overlay edges, set on the hand-sculpted Original Sole in cream rubber. Marked EU 41.
The Piece
The Hank keeps the outline of the classic canvas court shoe and then lets it unravel a little. Every overlay of the grey canvas upper is cut with a raw edge and stitched down, so the eyestay, quarters and heel finish in soft, deliberate fraying. Long cream cotton laces run through silver-tone eyelets, and a grey toe bumper sits beneath the rubber toe cap.
Then comes the sole. The Original Sole is moulded to look shaped by hand, swelling and rippling around the shoe as if the rubber had been warmed and pressed into place, with a rounded, slumped toe cap at the front. Underneath, a brown diamond tread runs from heel to toe.

Authenticity & Care
Checked in hand in Japan before dispatch, with the reference and size confirmed on the inner labels. Brush the canvas with a soft dry brush, spot-clean marks with a damp cloth, and keep the pair away from direct heat to protect the sculpted sole.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand 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; ask anything you wish to know 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.
