A guide for this piece: about $374, 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 Lewis Leathers double rider in black horsehide made with Erostika, size 38. It is described as bought on the day of release at the Lewis Leathers store in Harajuku, worn about five times and then kept in a wardrobe.
The Piece
The collaboration takes the Lightning, the house's best known double rider, in its Tight Fit cut and lines it with Riot for the Sake of Freedom, a crowded pin-up panorama Rockin' Jelly Bean painted for the twentieth anniversary of Erostika. From outside it is a plain black English rider; the artwork shows only when the jacket is opened.
The lining artwork includes nude figures and is intended for adult collectors, so the photographs here show the exterior, where the lining appears only at the collar.

Authenticity & Care
Described as the Lewis Leathers and Erostika collaboration, bought new by its only owner. The labels and maker's marks appear in the photographs. The Desk has not yet handled the piece, and a team of curators checks every detail in Japan before dispatch. Condition the leather sparingly, hang it on a broad shaped hanger and keep it away from heat and prolonged damp.
Delivery from Japan
The jacket is packed by hand in Japan, folded once in tissue inside a sturdy carton. Shipping is quoted and agreed with you before purchase, weighing EMS, then FedEx, then air cargo, all insured and tracked. Duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know 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. See more from contemporary Japanese artists, or browse what has just arrived.
