A guide for this piece: about $69, 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.

Denim with a spine
KIDILL treats the five-pocket jean as raw material for a punk sculpture: the outer seams swell into a ridge of pouches that read almost like the plates of a creature's back. The silver drag of paint finishes the thought.
Best for: Collectors of Japanese avant-garde and punk designer denim
Condition notes
Light signs of wear; no large marks or damage recorded. Silver paint is the design finish.

Black denim pulled into a run of swollen, pinched pockets down each outer leg, then brushed with silver paint: KIDILL's KL1051 trousers, size 44, a pair that changes silhouette with every step.
The Piece
KIDILL is the Tokyo label of Hiroaki Sueyasu, built on punk, noise and the deliberate damage of subculture clothing. This pair takes a plain five-pocket jean and gives it a sculptural edge. From hip to hem, the side seams are gathered into a stack of puffed, horn-like pouches, so the leg stands away from the body in a jagged outline. The cut is high and wide, falling straight to a full hem.
The cloth is a dense black cotton denim, worked over with a silver-grey paint that drags across the thighs and pools at the knees and hems, as if the trousers had been dragged across a freshly painted floor. A zip fly closes under a single shank button, a white KIDILL tab sits at the waistband, and the brown leather back patch is stamped LOT KL 1051 W 44.
