A guide for this piece: about $143, 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 drawing in black on black
sacai lets the back speak in a whisper: a tonal sketch of lips and a star that only reveals itself in raking light. The doubled zip and snap front is the house signature, turning a letterman into something more architectural.
Best for: sacai collectors; slim varsity wearers in size 1
Condition notes
No conspicuous marks; light signs of use. Leather sleeves show natural creasing.

A sacai varsity bomber from the 24AW season, the Gonz Wool Melton Leather Bomber Jacket, reference 24-03523M: black melton body, black cowhide sleeves and a hand-drawn tonal motif across the back. Size 1.
The Piece
The back carries the design and leads. In black on black, a loose hand-drawn triangle frames a pair of lips baring their teeth, one tooth marked with a star, beneath a banner lettered The Good Vibes Tribe. It reads quietly from a distance and fully up close, the way a drawing on a sketchbook cover does.
The front repeats the lips in a small chest patch. Typical of the house, the closure is doubled: a full silver zip runs beside a row of snaps, so the jacket can be worn as a bomber or a classic letterman. Leather welts edge the pockets, and black and white striped rib finishes collar, cuffs and hem.
sacai was founded in Tokyo in 1999 by Chitose Abe, whose hybrid construction is visible here in the double front.
