A guide for this piece: about $42, 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 Runner Cast in Clay
The house turns a retro running shoe into sculpture: soft grey suede and mesh above a sole stacked in cream and white, its sidewalls rippling as if moulded by hand.
Best for: Wearers who want the house sole in a quieter, sportier shape
Condition notes
Wear from use: light marks on the suede and the sole edges, even outsole wear with the tread still clear.

The George from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A10FW701, a mixed-material low-top in grey suede and mesh on the house's hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 43.
The Piece
George borrows its lines from the archive running shoe: a low, padded collar, mesh panels framed by suede overlays and a long, sweeping side stripe in pale grey. The laces are deliberately oversized, thick grey cords tied in loose loops that sit high on the tongue.
Underneath runs the Original Sole in a stacked form, a cream layer over a white one over a black outsole, each with the soft, uneven edges of something shaped by hand rather than pressed from a mould.
The outsoles carry a segmented tread with the house mark set in an oval at the arch, and the reference and size are printed inside the shoe.
Sporty in outline, sculptural in detail, and easy to wear with almost anything.

Authenticity & Care
Checked and photographed in Japan before dispatch; the sculpted sole, the outsole tread and the reference and size printed inside the shoe are all shown among the frames. Brush suede with a soft brush when dry and wipe the sole with a damp cloth; keep the pair away from direct heat.
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.
