A guide for this piece: about $50, 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 Peterson low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A01FW702: black cotton canvas, a white rubber toe cap and the hand-sculpted Original Sole in white, with MMY moulded into each heel. Marked EU 44.
The Piece
This is the shoe that made the house's name on the street. The upper is a straightforward black canvas court shoe with cream contrast stitching, white laces and a rounded rubber toe cap. The sole is where it turns. Instead of a crisp vulcanised strip, the Original Sole bulges, ripples and folds in thick white rubber, as if it had been sculpted by hand in clay and cast just as it was.
The reference A01FW702 and size 44 are printed on the canvas lining below a woven maker's label, and MMY sits in raised letters at the back of each heel. Underneath, the outsole carries a diamond tread in tan rubber.
Black and white, the house classic, worn in.
