        Gustav, unfortunately it's not from Russia, it has strong US provenance. Steve, I didn't see similar in CG shop, but mine definitely not from there Still looking for period pix of wearing these covers.

                        Wonderful examples, wow!! Has any additional light been discovered with respect to these covers? Factory-made stitching or more like unit level tailor fabricating these?

                          Thanks, guys, I personally still didn't found any information about production of them, but definitely well made pieces, looks factory made..put them together, while they a little bit different outside inner construction identical. Sorry I wouldn't show close ups especially inside to prevent these from fakers.

                                As do I! These covers and the baggy trousers in the same pattern are uber cool and an important part of Fj uniforms worn in Italy.

                                Congrats on a wonderful addition Sergey!
