OK, Tim50 sent me a PM stating his coat is sold, so I will list this.
I'm offering this up with strong apprehension. It's a classic Woolrich hunting pant/coat set. I bought this set somewhere around the mid-80's. I remember the timeframe, as I remember my first wife grumbling about the price, and I kinda remember how long I had my first wife.
If I had to guess, I wore the pants once, and the field coat maybe 3 times on cold, late flinter hunts. If one would rat "used" apparel on a scale of Poor-to-Excellent, this set would get an Excellent PLUS. It literally could hang on a rack at Cabela's, and you would never know it was some 30 years old. No rips, tears, smudges, blemishes, nuttin. All buttons attached. All zippers completely functional.
Now, back then, I was built, ummmmmm.... better ? My waist is no longer a 32, and my chest is no longer a 45. So, in that light, it probably would take a "fit" type of person, to match both pant and coat. I guess the beauty of that is a guy could wear the coat, while his more "fit" son, can wear the pants ? Anyhow, I CANNOT break this set up. To me, it would be sacrelig. busting up a Classic Woolrich hunting set. These are the classic Red/Black Plaid with the quilted liners in each, and the colors are still ultra-vibrant.
Here is the tale of the tape.
Coat:Hunting Parka Style. Size=Large Length=Long. 2 Deep Exterior Flapped Pockets. 1 Inside Large Waist Pocket. 1 Inside zipper Chest Pocket. 1 LARGE and Hidden Interior Game Pouch. (The game pouch was probably a feature added to depict the style of the turn of last century ? as it isn't quite practical today to hunt smallgame in a classic Woolrich outfit). Collar can be flapped very high, to protect from wind, and is "latched" with a button strap. Front is Button-down, with a foldover flap to protect buttons.
Pants:Size=32 Waist. Length=Reg. 2 Large Button/Flap Rear Pockets. 2 Deep Front Pockets. Metal Suspender Snaps Front/Back (though a 32" waist prolly don't need 'em). Pant is "ribbed" at the bottom for the classic Woolrich boot look.
I could only imagine what a new set like this would set one back ? There are no more cold days on stand with this outfit. I am located in Washington County. I will ship on buyer, and can guarantee all description is completely accurate, and will stake my rep. on that. Looking for $230. PM's weclomed.
Edit to Add: It may be helpful to know, I am 6' 210 lb. The coat fits perfectly still, as I have long arms, and there is PLENTY of length and plenty of chest room. Even with packed on winter clothing... that you won't need. PANTS, fahgetaboutit. I ain't gettin into no 32's.

Little Guy ? rofl Sheesh Mountain Man, I'm 6' 210. rofl
By the way, I met you. As big as you are, that coat would fit you right spiffy. It was bought when my chest was in the 46-48 range and still PLENTY of room. I hate to split them, but seeing how the pants and overcoat are dissimilar in size, maybe I should. OK, I convinced myself, I'll split them to $150 coat and $70 pant. (I already reduced by $10 on another site, forgot to here).

32" waist? What did you do, strap yourself to a tree on windy days?  I would like to try that old coat on.. hard to tell if it would fit my awesome physique. The arms might be too long for me. But they say if you can still stand up straight and see your private parts without looking in a mirror you are good to go..  |

Reckon a fella could always give the sleeves a one roll up Glenn. *thumbsup*
Honestly, I cannot believe that I still have this set.... well the coat at least. This is LITERALLY branny new, authentic Woolrich, though 30+ years old. No way, no how touch this at that price.

Since the first of the year, I have lost so much weight that I now fit comfortably into size 34 waist pants. Just a few more pounds and I might be interested in this outfit. It would still require a large shoehorn to get me into it now.  |

Even if you "made the weight" prior to getting to "Deer Camp", you probably wouldn't get back into it once you left.  |
