Description:

Item:
Original 1970s padded ski jacket in a vivid red colourway with bold blue and yellow racing stripes across the chest and sleeves. Fully insulated with quilted construction, high padded collar, snap-front closure and a longline silhouette typical of early alpine outerwear. Designed for warmth, visibility and movement on the slopes, with strong motorsport crossover styling.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unbranded / Skiwear

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Padding remains full and even, fabric still vibrant with no loss of colour impact, and all fastenings intact and functional. Light wear consistent with age only. Honest use that adds character without affecting wearability.

Provenance Note:
This feels straight out of the golden era of European ski culture. Bright colours, graphic striping and a silhouette that blends mountain sport with motorsport attitude. Before skiwear became muted and technical, jackets like this were designed to stand out against snow and sky. It carries that unmistakable 1970s optimism and bravado, a piece that instantly brings atmosphere and authenticity to any winter look.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation, however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with pit-to-pit (chest), then check length. Vintage pieces can be cut boxier and shorter than modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.
