It looks good to me, but of course the photographs are not good enough for a proper assessment.
Yes,it could well be a period smock since field-tailored camo garment weren't rare by any means.More detailed pictures would be absolutely needed to ascertain with reasonable certainty whether it's a period garment whose ageing is due to the years rather than clever treatments or not.
IMHO it could be a WW2 period tunic even if is well nigh on impossible to tell EXACTLY when it's been made!

Hello,
I have seen so many things in the past...like a french guy in the nineties hunting while wearing an authentic Fallschirmsjäger smock or an old guy met by an ex-friend of mine at our local fleamarket...the guy was shopping with his wife with genuine Panzer WSS camo pants on....useless to say that pants were bought from him...and sold to another collect for a nice, very nice bargain...
I already told this story here, but for those who never saw the thread...in a french car factory, workers used kilometers and kilometers of WSS camo cloth as rags...the stock was taken from Germany and has been used for many years...How many camo pants, jackets or caps were made for fishing, hunting, etc....by these workers' wifes with FREE material taken from the factory ?
If the base material is genuine....then it's almost impossible to say if made in WWII or later...
How many camo garments made with original Zeltbahn material found in cellar, barns, etc.. that were made in the fifties or sixties but are now in collections due to the fact that they were not bought from a collector but found for free in barns etc......that's ridiculous...
To the contrary, for instance i do own what for me is genuine last ditch camo apron for snipers that is almost unknown from the collectors community as it is not the model known....and as it is almost unkown, it's got to be a fake or a repro...
Thanks
