A guide for this piece: about $68, 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.

A khaki flight-jacket front gives way to a backpack-like assembly of webbing and pockets on this eYe JUNYA WATANABE MAN piece.

The Piece

Junya Watanabe’s eYe line for COMME des GARÇONS MAN has long treated military garments as material for reconstruction. This jacket, reference WK-J912, belongs to the Spring/Summer 2023 Ridge 40 series: a flight-jacket silhouette whose back is built out with webbing and pocket-like divisions, so that the rear reads as a pack stitched to the garment. The front opens onto a bright blue inner section beside camouflage-patterned fabric. The neck label reads Made in Japan and size S. Nylon is the recorded cloth.

Laid flat, the jacket measures 50 cm across the shoulders, 56 cm across the chest, 63.5 cm in length and 61 cm in the sleeve. Allow a gentle margin of about 1–3 cm, as with any hand-held tape on a soft garment. Compare the chest width with a jacket you already wear; 56 cm is measured across, not as a circumference.
