Important Notice for U.S. Customers

Due to recent changes in U.S. import regulations, orders shipped from Japan or containing products made in China or Hong Kong may be subject to additional import duties. Please read the following carefully before placing your order.

Items Shipped from Japan
As of April 9, 2025, the U.S. government has temporarily suspended the "Reciprocal Tariff" for 90 days, reducing the additional duty rate from up to 24% to 10% as of now.
This measure is scheduled to remain in effect through July 8, 2025, but the duty rate and its duration may change at any time.
The actual duty applied may vary depending on when your package arrives in the U.S., so we strongly recommend reviewing the most up-to-date information before placing your order.

Please note that this duty applies regardless of the product’s country of origin. Even if the item is made in another country, it may still be subject to this duty if shipped from Japan.

Products Made in China or Hong Kong
Products labeled “Made in China” or “Made in Hong Kong” were already subject to high duty rates (typically 60%–104%).
As of April 9, 2025, the duty rate for Chinese goods has been raised to 125%.
Additionally, starting May 2, 2025, such products will no longer be eligible for the de minimis exemption, meaning duties may apply even for orders under USD $800.
This rule applies regardless of the shipping country—what matters is the country of origin.

Duties and How They Are Charged
If import duties or customs clearance fees are incurred, they are usually collected by the shipping carrier (such as DHL, FedEx, or EMS: USPS) at the time of delivery.
Please note that the exact amount is determined by U.S. Customs, and we are unable to provide advance estimates or guarantees regarding these charges.
If you have any concerns, we recommend contacting your local customs office before placing an order.

【Estimated Duty Rates for U.S. Deliveries】(as of April 10, 2025)

●Socks made in Japan or the Philippines: Import duties of approximately 13.5% may apply.
●Shoes and safety shoes made in Japan or the Philippines (with cotton uppers and steel toe caps): Import duties of approximately 37.5% may apply.
●Products made in China: As of April 9, 2025, the U.S. government has increased import duties on goods from China to 125%.
 
Please note: Currently, all shipments from Japan are subject to a 10% reciprocal tariff based on the shipping origin (in effect through July 8, 2025).　In addition to this 10% tariff, regular import duties based on the product’s material and specifications (such as 13.5% or 37.5%) may also apply. All duty rates are determined by U.S. Customs (CBP), and we are unable to provide confirmed amounts in advance.
The figures above are general estimates and may vary depending on the product’s material, specifications, and declaration details.  

Please also note: Import duty treatment and tax rates may vary depending on the destination country.
If you have the option, you are welcome to consider shipping to a family member or friend outside the U.S. at your own discretion.
For details, please consult your local customs authority before placing an order.
 
Refused Shipments
If a package is refused due to duties or taxes, we will not be able to issue a refund for the product or shipping fees. Thank you for your understanding.
