A guide for this piece: about $370, 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.

Campus codes in full hide
The varsity jacket is usually wool with leather sleeves; Celine makes the whole garment in cowhide and keeps every other code intact, from the striped rib collar to the chenille script. The tan body already looks lived in, which is precisely the point of the design.
Best for: Celine collectors; leather outerwear wardrobes with a vintage American lean
Condition notes
Light signs of use; natural tonal variation and creasing to the leather.

A Celine varsity jacket made wholly in cowhide, reference 2E948131O: a tan body with a soft, slightly burnished grain, black leather sleeves, a chenille Celine Paris script on one arm and the numerals 16 on the other. Tagged 54.
The Piece
The proportions are generous and the references exact. A shirt collar in black and cream striped rib sits above a snap front closed with brass-toned studs, and the slanted pockets are piped in black leather. The same striped rib closes the cuffs and the hem, so the jacket reads instantly as American letterman wear.
The ornament is kept to the sleeves. On one, the house name is written in a looping chenille script over a felt panel lettered Paris; on the other, the numerals 16 stand in the place a school year would traditionally go. The tan leather of the body has taken on a gentle variation of tone, which suits the vintage spirit of the design.
The woven label reads Celine Paris and the size label 54. The care label lists cowhide for both body panels, a cupro lining in part, polyester padding and wool rib, made in Italy.
