A guide for this piece: about $46, 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 Hank low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A05FW702: black cotton canvas set on a hand-sculpted Original Sole in clean white rubber, with a pale toe cap and broad white laces. Marked EU 41.
The Piece
Hank is the house's plainest silhouette and, for that reason, its most telling. The upper is a classic court shoe in black canvas, stitched in white, with five pairs of eyelets and a padded collar. Everything happens below it: the sole looks as if it were modelled in clay and left to soften, its sidewall rising in uneven waves, folding over the toe and pooling at the heel.
This pair arrives in clean order, with crisp white rubber and fresh, unfaded canvas. The tread beneath is a brown diamond pattern with the house mark at the waist, barely worn.
A familiar shape, cast as though from memory.

Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand 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; ask anything you wish to know 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.
