Retro HO Esprit Water Slalom Skis with Matching Life Jacket and Case
This lot offers a retro pair of HO Esprit water slalom skis, model 64-65, presented with a matching life jacket and a competition carry case. The skis have a long white body with a grid pattern and teal square accents, and the Esprit name appears in teal along the top surface. A black binding sits on the upper section, with a second black binding plate towards the tail. The matching life jacket is in teal and pink with three buckled front straps and a pink collar. The carry case is black with pink and teal trim, has a zipped opening and a carry handle, and carries the word COMPETITION along its length. The ski bag is also marked with the word Skis near its top end.
Condition and Collector Interest
The skis, life jacket and case are offered as a group, with no further detail provided on their condition or working order. Buyers are advised to inspect the items carefully before bidding, as this lot is sold as seen. The bold pink, teal and white colourway and the Esprit branding give the set a distinctive retro sporting look, which may appeal to collectors of vintage water sports equipment, enthusiasts of 1980s-era design, or those looking for matching kit to display or use.
