A guide for this piece: about $494, 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 trucker-style jacket from Louis Vuitton in navy monogram velvet, its lower half bleached to a pale sand so that the pattern seems to dissolve from the hem upward. Quilted navy lining, brass-tone monogram buttons, size 46.
The Piece
Louis Vuitton has returned to its monogram in every decade since 1896, and in recent seasons the menswear studio has treated it less as a logo than as a textile to be worked on. Here the flocked cotton-viscose velvet is dyed deep navy and then bleached, a jagged tide line rising across the back and cascading down one sleeve, leaving the quatrefoils and initials visible in both the dark and the pale zones.
The shape recalls the workwear trucker: a pointed collar, two flap chest pockets, side pockets and a row of engraved metal buttons, cut generously in the body with a gently boxy line. Inside, a quilted lining in navy gives a little warmth and a smooth hand. The fade falls differently across the back and each sleeve, as the photographs show.
Measured flat: length 74 cm (29.1 in), shoulder width 48 cm (18.9 in), chest width 59.5 cm (23.4 in), sleeve length 68 cm (26.8 in). Every measurement is taken by hand, so please allow a margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).

Authenticity & Care
The Louis Vuitton Paris woven label and the multilingual composition label are photographed, together with the engraved buttons. Entrust the jacket to a specialist cleaner, keep it away from moisture, and store it on a wide hanger so that the velvet pile is not crushed.
