Rare 1973 Vintage Ski-Doo one-piece snowmobile suit -Women's Med -Made in Canada

Description

Here is just an awesome 1973 Ski-Doo one-piece women's snowmobile suit. Ski-Doo was making a fashion statement with this suit with its trench coat style back pocket yoke, the forward facing non-functional epaulettes on the shoulders, and the red and white stripes over the opalescent/iridescent blue shell. I don't see any size tag but compared to the measurements of a one-piece '73 Women's Arctic Cat Snowrider suit I have I would safely call it a Medium.
Features:
Heavy weight and repellent blue jean style ribbed nylon shell. You can still smell the water repellent.
The red flannel lining is in great shape.
The chrome snaps are all in good shape.
The two deep front pockets and the chest pocket have a rubberized coating on the forward facing inside-good condition.
Synthetic elasticized cuffs and collar are in great shape.
Long leggings inside the leg bottoms. (see Condition)
The knit cotton cuffs at the ends of the leggings are still stretchy.
The hidden hood is in great shape (hides in the back with a zippered access above the labels).

Embroidered ski-doo logo on the chest pocket.
Ski-doo logo on the quick release belt buckle.
Adjustable 1/2 belt with quick release buckle and elastic waist band in the back.
Roomy seat and thighs.
Great display item and definitely a real head turner at vintage snowmobile rides and events.

Condition:
This suit is really in great condition with a few minor issues, like one tooth missing in the zipper (still works fine), some minor water like spots and light soiling at the leg bottoms, a smudge mark and superficial surface scratch mark on the back, and extremely hard to detect minor abrasions and soiled spots. The opalescent/iridescent material really hides any minor flaws. The rubberized coating on the inside of the leggings is starting to bubble and peel, the shell material is in great condition.
