A guide for this piece: about $255, 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 red cowhide double rider made by Vanson in Boston for eYe Junya Watanabe MAN, Comme des Garçons, lined in a yellow paisley that only a Junya collaboration would choose.
The Piece
Junya Watanabe trained under Rei Kawakubo and launched his menswear in 2001, building a body of work on reworked American classics made with the original makers. Vanson Leathers, founded in Boston in 1974, is one of those makers, and its motorcycle jackets have been cut in Massachusetts ever since.
This is the WF-J901 double rider in deep red cowhide, with an asymmetric zip front, notched lapels with snaps, zipped hand and chest pockets, zipped cuffs and a buckled waist belt. Inside, a padded yellow paisley lining carries the eYe Junya Watanabe MAN label above the Vanson Leathers flag patch, Made in USA. Vanson's oval logo is embossed under the collar. The tag dates it to AD2010.

Condition
No major damage. The cowhide shows small scratches, light scuffing and a little colour loss from wear, with light pilling to the lining; the zips, snaps and belt are all in order.

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.
