Hi, I'm sure of nothing, the seams look cool, the fabric is worn evenly, no more at the level of the folds or friction of use, rusty rivets have not left any trace of rust at the edges of the fabric, in short I am septic. I hope I'm wrong

Interesting comments. I see your points. Also, no rust "bleeding" on the fabric from very rusty snaps.

The camo fabric is likely to be from a worn padded winter jacket. Some FJ smocks were made from this camo pattern as well.
