That's a west German label!....

[HPL2008]

It's a West German flight suit. The label is for the manufacturer Paul Schulze of Brakel, a former supplier of uniforms and rucksacks for the Bundeswehr. 1983 is the year of manufacture. The "A" mark (for "ausgesondert") means that is was found inserviceable and sold off as surplus.

It looks to have been overdyed black. You can see it in the label, but also black isn't the correct color. Not sure what's going on with the collar. Looks like someone had tabs placed on it, in which case they were probably WW2 types.
