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 deadstock outfit made by Evis for its Buddy doll: indigo denim bib overalls and a matching railroad cap, the cap carrying the early Evis Style Craft & Co label.
The Piece
Evisu began in Osaka in 1991 under the name Evis, and the house later changed to Evisu. This outfit belongs to that first chapter, when the label read Evis and the brand dressed its own Buddy doll in miniature versions of the workwear it cut for people.
There are two pieces. The bib overalls are cut from a dark indigo denim with cream contrast stitching, a bib pocket, straps crossed at the back with metal fittings and a full, straight leg. The railroad cap is made from the same denim, with a soft crown, a short stitched brim and a woven black patch embroidered Evis in gold above Style Craft & Co in red.
The set is sized for the Buddy Evis doll. The doll in the photographs is shown for display only and is not included; this offer is for the overalls and cap alone.

Authenticity & Care
Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. As an unused collector piece it is best kept folded in acid-free tissue, away from light and damp, so the indigo stays deep. If it is ever cleaned, a cold hand rinse inside out and drying flat in shade will keep the colour.
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 you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
