A guide for this piece: about $129, 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.

Slim black lambskin trousers from Arts and Crafts, studded along the front pockets and down zipped side hems, worn to a soft, burnished finish.
The Piece
Autumn/Winter 2005, Arts and Crafts, is one of the seasons that defines Jun Takahashi's reputation: a collection of hand-finished leather, studs and embroidered lightning bolts that took the rock wardrobe and treated it as craft. Its leather pieces are now among the most collected Undercover garments anywhere.
These trousers carry product code 5A243-P5, the 5A prefix placing them in that season. They are cut from lamb leather in a close, skinny line, with a row of small pyramid studs tracing each front pocket and running up the outer hem, where a zip opens to flare the ankle and reveal a suede facing. A small lightning bolt is embroidered at the hip, two zipped jet pockets sit at the back, and the original finish was deliberately worn and toned.
Tagged size 1 with a low rise and long inseam. Worn with a plain knit and boots they give the exact silhouette of mid-2000s Undercover.

Authenticity & Care
The labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Leather specialist clean only; condition sparingly and hang on a padded hanger.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Japan 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; please ask anything before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the pair laid flat, in centimetres. Measure jeans or trousers that already fit you the same way and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our jeans and trousers size guide reads waist and inseam in inches and centimetres, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
