A guide for this piece: about $30, 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.

One of Kapital's most unusual denim shapes: the Chaps Game vest, a full-length apron-like garment in rigid 12.5oz indigo with crossed straps, chaps-style pockets and a split front.
The Piece
Kapital has a long habit of taking a working garment and pushing it somewhere unexpected. The Chaps Game vest crosses a cowboy's leather chaps with a workshop apron and a hunting vest, and the result is a long denim panel that hangs from crossed shoulder straps to below the knee.
It is made from rigid 12.5oz indigo denim with yellow-gold stitching. At the front, two flap pockets with snaps sit at hip height either side of a centre opening fastened by a snap strap, with patch pockets lower down at the knees. The back carries two large patch pockets and a centre seam with a vent. The straps cross at the back and adjust with metal sliders.
A woven WINDAY Saf-T-Flap label nods to vintage workwear, and the care tag reads K2010SJ080, size F, which places it in Kapital's late-2020 delivery. The denim is still dark and crisp, with only light handling.
One size, it can be worn over trousers and a shirt as a layering piece, or styled over a dress or long knit; adjust the straps to set the length.

Authenticity & Care
The labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Wash cold, separately and inside out, and line dry in the shade.
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 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.
