A guide for this piece: about $49, 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 crewneck sweatshirt from Kenzo in a bright leaf green, its chest filled by an embroidered tiger with open jaws beneath pink Kenzo lettering. Size XS, acquired in 2023 and tried on only.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has always drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. In recent seasons the tiger has become its most recognisable emblem, and the Varsity Jungle design gives it a collegiate setting: the name arches above the animal in outlined pink capitals, while the beast itself is worked in thick, raised stitching in green, yellow, white and red.
The embroidery is the focus of the piece and gives the front a pleasing relief that catches the light. The rest of the garment is deliberately plain: a ribbed crew neck, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a relaxed, slightly dropped shoulder. At the back there is nothing but a small red Kenzo label below the neck, which keeps the whole composition on the front.
It is a sweatshirt for those who like a strong colour and a confident motif, equally at home with denim or with a tailored trouser. The green is saturated and even across the body, front and back.
