A guide for this piece: about $131, 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.

Paris tailoring, campus outline
Saint Laurent strips the letterman of every badge and keeps only its outline, then sharpens it with lambskin at the shoulder. The result is a varsity jacket that behaves like tailoring: narrow, black and exact, with the cream rib as its single flourish.
Best for: Saint Laurent collectors; slim varsity wearers in 46
Condition notes
Light signs of use; no conspicuous damage noted. Lambskin yokes show natural surface.
Grades, ratings and commentary are given to the best of our ability, knowledge and experience, and condition remains partly a matter of personal perception. What we stand behind without qualification is authenticity, truthful description and provenance, to the best of our knowledge. How we grade

A Saint Laurent varsity bomber, reference 583970 Y180W, in black virgin wool with black lambskin shoulder yokes and cream and black rib. Made in Italy; size 46.
The Piece
The front leads: here the design is all in the cut. Black lambskin panels sit over both shoulders like a yoke, giving the slim wool body a sharp, raised line; a full zip runs from the rib collar to the hem, and two slanted welt pockets are set low. The collar, cuffs and hem are knitted in wide bands of cream framed in black.
The back repeats the lambskin across the shoulder blades, then leaves a clean field of black wool. Inside, a twill lining in cupro and cotton carries the white Saint Laurent Paris label beneath a fine metal chain hanging loop.
Saint Laurent has made the varsity jacket a recurring house piece; this is the form at its most restrained.
