A guide for this piece: about $285, 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.

Three houses, one leather coat
Built to mark two decades of RATS, this jacket carries the badges of the Tokyo street families it grew up beside: NEIGHBORHOOD on one sleeve, WTAPS on the other, and the rat itself counting to twenty on the chest. All in black cowhide, it reads as a quiet monument rather than a costume, the varsity form turned into a record of a scene.
Best for: Collectors of Tokyo street labels; black leather varsity wardrobes
Condition notes
