A guide for this piece: about $47, 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.

BAKER low-top sneakers from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A02FW704: mint green cotton canvas with white flat laces and a fine black foxing line, set on the house's sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 40.
The Piece
BAKER is the house's take on the plain canvas deck shoe of skate and surf culture: a low, clean vamp, a padded collar, metal eyelets and a small woven MMY tab on the side. Here it comes in a soft pastel mint, a colour that keeps the shape light and lets the sole do the talking.
That sole is the Original Sole, cast from a hand-carved model so that its white walls swell, fold and ripple like poured wax, edged at the top with a thin black line in the manner of vintage vulcanised shoes. The heel is moulded with the MMY mark, and the outsole carries a diamond tread with the maker's emblem under the arch.

Authenticity & Care

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.

Compare with a pair you already wear from the same maker and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale.
