A guide for this piece: about $43, 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 panther at dusk
A calmer palette than most of the label, with the animal drawn large and alone. The gradient gives it a sense of evening.

A Christian Audigier zip hoodie in size L, with a black panther striding through pink leaves on a ground that fades from pale grey through teal to black. The same panther appears front and back.
The Piece
The signature is embroidered across the chest in gold script over a yellow sun, and rhinestones are scattered through the leaves on the sleeves. The back is lettered with the name, Est. 1958 and Los Angeles below the panther.
Gold satin lines the hood and body, the drawcords are gold rope, and the zip ends in a metal monogram pull. The cut is slim for its label size. Christian Audigier, the French designer who built Ed Hardy into a worldwide name, ran this label under his own signature in Los Angeles during the 2000s.

Authenticity & Care
Described as a Christian Audigier hoodie from the 2000s. The labels and maker's marks appear in the photographs. The Desk has not yet handled the piece, and a team of curators checks every detail in Japan before dispatch. Wash inside out by hand or on a gentle cycle, and dry flat away from heat so the print and stones stay in place.
Delivery from Japan
The hoodie is packed by hand in Japan, folded in tissue inside a sturdy carton. Shipping is quoted and agreed with you before purchase, weighing EMS, then FedEx, then air cargo, all insured and tracked. Duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the garment laid flat, in centimetres. Lay a shirt or jacket you already love beside them and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size guide to tops and jackets turns pit-to-pit figures into US, UK, EU and Japanese sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally. See more designer and archive pieces as they reach the Desk, or browse what has just arrived.
