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.

A derby shoe from the General Scale line of Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference S09FW702: sand-beige nubuck-finish leather on a chunky lug sole washed in grey, as though the pair had already walked a muddy road. Marked EU 43.
The Piece
The upper is a plain, honest work derby: open lacing on five eyelets, a square-set toe, tonal stitching and an orange-brown leather lining. The drama is all underfoot. The deep rubber lug sole has been treated with a grey, smeared wash that settles into every groove, so the shoe arrives with the look of a long-worn favourite, a vintage effect built in at the making.
Thick braided cotton laces in olive brown add to the workwear feeling, and a small General Scale tab sits on each tongue. The outsole is moulded with the MMY letters among the lugs.

Authenticity & Care
Checked and photographed in Japan before dispatch; the reference and size printed inside the lining were confirmed in hand. Brush the leather gently, use a nubuck cleaner for marks, and avoid scrubbing the sole so the washed finish keeps its character.
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.
