My interpretation relates to the classic, medieval, context. Traditionally moleskin is a thick flannel like fabric with a fuzzy nap and got its name from the kind of velour like fur on a mole. Its utilitarian and likened to a poor mans velour. Doeskin has similar properties but neither have a visible weave. What you're showing, in the German context, is simply a ribbed twill which incorrectly got the wrong name in my opinion and I own reference books where it is incorrectly referred to as that. I'm not trying to be confrontational either so please feel free to call it what you want. I'm not a paying member here so I can't post pix.
