A guide for this piece: about $27, 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.

Yellow uppers, blue Swooshes and pale-blue waffle outsoles distinguish this small Nike Waffle Trainer pair.
The Piece
These shoes are presented for display or study, not running or routine wear.
Ten original views include the heels, outsoles, tongue label, interior deterioration and a ruler comparison. Textile panels and suede-looking overlays are visible. A ruler beside the shoes provides scale context; it does not turn an approximate interior estimate into a certified fitting measurement.

- Maker / model: Nike Waffle Trainer
- Purpose: Display or study
- Colour: Yellow and blue; pale-blue outsoles

Condition
Use-related damage and deterioration from long storage are present. Interior foam and lining wear are visible in close-up, with further sole and upper ageing shown across the gallery. No C grade or restored condition has been invented. No practical wearability, adhesive strength or cushioning performance is established; conservation and display are the appropriate context.
Authenticity & Care
Support both shoes for display and avoid flexing hardened soles or pulling aged lining foam. Keep dry and away from direct heat. No restoration or safe-wear assessment is implied by background-cleaned photographs.
Delivery from Japan
Protective packing and dispatch arrangements depend on the piece and destination. Ask about any handling requirement before dispatch.
