nice, what makes the hood being replaced?
As René suggests, these were often made with slightly (or hugely) differing fabric panels, cut from different cloth bolts (from several manufacturers), so there is nothing unusual about seeing such mismatched parts - contrasting pocket flaps, sleeve panels, even body panels can be found.
A very nice example. Well done!
Great find!
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

Yes, the fabric on one of the arms isn't matching either. Nice late war example. Any marks stamped on it?
Appears to be Sumpftarn, nice find.
