Hello, and welcome to the forum! This looks like the same era and labeling as this Code: https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-christian-dior-sport-ski-pants-elastiss-5e1403bf6a7fba8b54dabd86 The jacket looks to be 1960s, and made of wool cavalry twill https://vintagefashionguild.org/fabric-resource/cavalry-twill (look for the distinct double line in the twill weave). I think, from the wear to the labels, and the very sturdy fabric, that this was made for real sport, like skiing.
Very chic and very 60s! Something new to me, but it definitely looks like what Maggie found!
