A guide for this piece: about $34, 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.

The Tabi split toe rendered as a sculptural lace-up derby moulded in matte khaki rubber, from Maison Margiela's Autumn/Winter 2022 season, in near unworn condition.
The Piece
Martin Margiela introduced the Tabi in his first show in 1988, borrowing the split toe from the traditional Japanese tabi sock. More than three decades later it remains the house's defining design and one of the most recognisable shoes in fashion.
This Autumn/Winter 2022 version reimagines a classic derby in moulded rubber. The upper, with its five-eyelet lacing and stitched-effect panelling, is cast in a matte khaki green, the split toe is sharply defined, and the signature four white stitches sit at the heel.
The sole is embossed with the Maison Margiela number calendar, the size 40 and Made in Italy, and the insole is a pale leather. Rubber makes this a practical Tabi for rain and city wear while keeping the clean, slightly surreal silhouette.
Tagged EU 40 with an outsole length of 27 cm; Tabi shoes generally fit true to size, and the rubber has little give, so we suggest your usual Margiela size.

Authenticity & Care
The labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Rinse with cool water and a soft cloth, dry away from direct heat and store out of strong sunlight to protect the colour.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Japan 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.
Japanese shoe sizes are given in centimetres of foot length, checked here by hand, and makers differ by half a size or more. Compare with a pair you already wear from the same maker and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our shoe size conversion chart sets Japan beside US, UK, EU and Korean sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
