A guide for this piece: about $48, 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.

Slim-fit jeans from Kenzo Paris in rinse-washed indigo denim, picked out in yellow contrast stitching and closed with a button fly. Size US 32, unworn, with the maker's tags attached.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and under Nigo the house has spoken often of a philosophy it calls real-to-wear: clothes with a clear identity that are meant to be worn every day. The Bara slim-fit jean is that idea in its plainest form, an honest five-pocket denim with one bright signature.
The cotton is a deep, even indigo, washed once only to release the starch, so it keeps the character of a near-raw denim and will take on the wearer's own fading over the years. Yellow thread runs along every seam and pocket edge against the dark blue, the fly is fastened with metal buttons, and a small red Kenzo Paris patch is stitched to the back pocket. The silhouette follows the leg without becoming tight, and the turned hem reveals a neat selvedge-style edge in the inside leg.
Measured flat: waist 43 cm across (86 cm, or 33.9 in, around), front rise 29 cm (11.4 in), thigh 29 cm (11.4 in), inseam 84 cm (33.1 in), leg opening 19 cm (7.5 in), full length 110 cm (43.3 in). Every measurement is taken by hand with the piece laid flat, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).
