A guide for this piece: about $356, 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 white blouson in soft nappa calfskin with a pointed collar, a two-way zip and the Prada triangle embossed at the back, size 48.

The Piece

Prada was founded in Milan in 1913, and its triangle plate has stood for the house since the late twentieth century.

This blouson is cut from nappa calfskin, a soft, smooth leather, in a clean white. The collar is pointed, a two-way zip closes the front, and the triangle logo is embossed across the upper back. The pocket lining is viscose.

A Prada Milano leather patch sits inside, and the care tag records manufacture in Italy.

Authenticity & Care

Woven labels, size and care labels, style references, zips, hardware and stitching are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Store it in a breathable dust bag away from heat and direct sun, keep it out of damp, and wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.

Delivery from Japan

Packed by hand in Japan 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; please ask anything before you buy, and see our published policy.

Every figure above is taken by hand with the garment laid flat, in centimetres. Lay a shirt or jacket you already love beside them and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size guide to tops and jackets turns pit-to-pit figures into US, UK, EU and Japanese sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
