So they were made out of original fabric, did I got you well Harry?

I think when it is written "made from a zeltbahn", what is really meant is - " made from leftover zeltbahn material".
There is not enough fabric in a zeltbahn shape ( with its many buttonholes, panels & stitching etc... ) for one to be pulled apart to make a smock. For sure, ones were used for helmet covers and M43 caps, but not a jacke.

thanks Dan.

Indeed, thank you, that I found out as well, I was rather asking if it's good repro fabric, or , as you have meant above an original fabric roll leftover, because I haven't dealt with this particular piece before.
Best regards
Nicholai.
