A guide for this piece: about $75, 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 wool V-neck knit from Kenzo, worked in off-white and navy with a tiger, stars and varsity lettering appliquéd across the body and sleeves. A graphic piece in fair condition, offered in a generous size XL.
The Piece
Kenzo, founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, has long joined couture craft to playful, graphic motifs. This knit carries that spirit in a collegiate form: a cream wool ground with navy colour-blocking at the neck, shoulders and hem, and striped bands that run down the sleeves.
On the front, an embroidered tiger head with open jaws sits at the centre, ringed by appliquéd stars in white and black. Script lettering reading Paris lies across the upper chest, and numerals are set down the sleeves in the manner of a varsity jersey. A small red woven Kenzo label sits at the inside of the V.
The back is given over to a large KENZO appliqué in black-edged letters, with three stars below and a Paris 1970 patch beneath, so that the piece reads as strongly from behind as from the front.

Authenticity & Care
The reference code FC65PU3293BB and the woven Kenzo label are consistent with the house’s men’s knitwear of this line. Wool should be hand washed cold or dry cleaned, dried flat, and stored folded rather than hung to protect the shoulders.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Tokyo 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.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally.
