A guide for this piece: about $87, 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 black wool turtleneck carrying a towering skull and crossbones in shaggy cream yarn, from Yohji Yamamoto, its neck label marked Replica 1994-1995 A/W.
The Piece
Few motifs in Yohji Yamamoto menswear provoke as much devotion as the skull. Here it rises almost the full height of the body, worked in a brushed, hairy cream yarn that stands proud of the black knit, so the image looks drawn in chalk and smudged by hand. It is romantic and slightly menacing at once, very much in the spirit of the house.
The neck label reads Yohji Yamamoto Replica with 1994-1995 A/W beneath it, as the photographs show. The body is a chunky, open knit in pure wool with a deep ribbed turtleneck, dropped shoulders and seams left visible along the arms, giving the sweater a relaxed, handmade fall. It is a piece to wear loose, over trousers cut wide, through the coldest months.

Authenticity & Care
Labels, stitching, knit structure and finish are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch. Hand wash cold with a wool detergent, dry flat away from heat, and fold rather than hang. Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee.
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 you wish to know 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.
