A guide for this piece: about $62, 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.

Wide-leg jeans from MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference J14PT123: deep indigo denim with heavy vintage fading, an elasticated waist and a khaki twill lining at the front. Size 48.
The Piece
The wash does the talking. Across the thighs, seat and knees, the indigo has been worn back to a sandy, almost bronze cast, with sharp whiskering at the hip and honeycomb creasing behind the knee. Elsewhere the denim stays dark and inky, so the fading reads like long years of wear compressed into one pair.
The cut is generous and straight through the leg, finishing in a wide, slightly cropped hem with thin cotton ties at the outseam. The waistband is elasticated at the back and closes at the front with a metal shank button and zip fly; inside, the pockets and fly facing are lined in khaki cotton twill. A tan leather patch sits on the right back pocket.
The house returns again and again to American workwear, rebuilt with exaggerated proportion and a heavy hand at the wash; these jeans show both habits clearly.
