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.

A low top from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A11FW702: the Peterson in black cotton canvas with a white rubber toe cap, white laces and the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 44, and accompanied by the maker's box.
The Piece
The Peterson is the house reading of the classic canvas court shoe, rebuilt so that it looks as though it has been half melted and pressed back by hand. Here the upper is plain black canvas with contrast white stitching, nickel eyelets and an oversized white toe cap, laced in white cotton.
Below, the Original Sole swells, dips and folds along its length like wax softened in the sun, finished in white with a fine black foxing line, and the MMY mark is embossed at each heel. The tongue carries the woven MMY footwear label, and the canvas lining is stamped with the reference and size.
A quiet colourway on the most recognisable sole in Japanese design.
