Just scrolled down to your post Jonathon and thought DANG that’s a sharp looking gabardine jacket and zoomed in before reading it. Sharp hat, sharp and hard to find jacket as well, good snag on both.Stetson:

Special shoutout to @Yamahana for the jacket, a 1940s H Bar C wool gabardine half belt. Earlier this year he posted one similar on the Outerwear sub-forum and gave it his stamp of approval. I recently found one in my size in incredible condition and it's gotten a lot of wear in the few weeks that I've had it. Coincidentally, Spencer (dinerman) also features one on his Vintage Haberdashers site:

That is a DANDY with the center pleat! You did great on this one. I saw that jacket-pant set and yes it was a later version, not even close to this one.Thanks, Greg! I nearly broke my finger when I BIN'd it because from the seller's pictures it looked to be darn near deadstock. Upon arrival I discovered it's not, but pretty close to it. I feel very lucky to have it and it's perfect for the transitional weather we're experiencing right now.
Yes, it does have the back center pleat:

There was a jacket and pants set that sold in the past day too. I think it may have been a slightly later iteration because the main Talon zip was slightly different and the chest pocket had a diamond pull Talon zip closure.
