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.

Black on black, crowned
This jacket keeps its voice low: the crown and S are outlined rather than filled, and the back script is stitched in the same black as the wool. It is a letterman built for the street rather than the stadium, and the photographic lining is its private joke. A strong, wearable statement of the Stussy varsity in a generous XL cut.
Best for: Stussy collectors; tonal black streetwear wardrobes
Condition notes
Light signs of use; leather creasing at sleeves and shoulders; printed lining torn and frayed in one place below the collar rib.

A Stussy Authentic Gear varsity jacket in black wool with black leather sleeves: a crowned S at the chest outlined in grey, the house script worked tonally across the back, and grey striped rib at collar, cuffs and hem. Tagged XL.
The Piece
The front carries the signature. A large black S sits on the left chest beneath a small crown, both outlined in pale grey so the patch reads black on black until the light finds it. The back answers with the Stussy script stitched in black thread onto black wool, a quiet mark that rewards a second look rather than shouting across a room.
The construction follows the classic letterman plan: snap front, two slanted welt pockets, set-in black leather sleeves and black rib banded twice in grey. Inside, the body is lined in a printed monochrome photographic collage scattered with Stussy graffiti, a detail the wearer keeps to themselves.
The Authentic Gear label placed the varsity jacket at the centre of Stussy's crossover from surf to street, and the crowned S remains one of the house's most recognised marks.
