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 long hooded mods coat in black wool gabardine from Y's for men, drawn in at the waist and falling to a fishtail hem, cut with the generous volume that defines Yohji Yamamoto menswear.
The Piece
The mods parka began as military surplus and became the uniform of a youth movement; Y's for men takes that silhouette and renders it in the quiet language of Tokyo tailoring. Instead of cotton drill there is a dense, dry wool gabardine, and instead of bright linings a smooth black cupro that lets the coat slide on easily.
The length is dramatic, at 121 cm from shoulder to hem, and the shoulders are dropped and wide, so the coat moves around the body rather than gripping it. A drawcord at the waist lets the wearer shape it, the hood sits softly, and buttoned tabs close the cuffs. Worn open over black, it has the gravity of a cloak.
