A guide for this piece: about $54, 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 Peterson23 from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A16FW724: khaki cotton canvas scattered with silver pyramid and round studs, set on the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 43.
The Piece
The Peterson23 takes the plain canvas sneaker and gives it a sole that looks as though it was shaped by hand from wet clay. Here the upper is an army khaki canvas, and the studwork is the point: square pyramids, flat round studs and small domes are scattered across the vamp, the quarters and the heel, catching light at every angle without any pattern you can quite repeat.
The rubber Original Sole carries the house signature in full. Its sides swell and fold like a melted cast, the toe cap is a wide rounded bumper, and the outsole is cut in an irregular crazed tread with the oval maker badge at the heel. Cream laces are wide and flat, and the insole carries the maker mark printed in black.
A sneaker that reads as workwear from across a room and as something far stranger up close.
