Usage Photos and Further Information:

Likely from mid-1980’s commercial item (catalog here: http://soldiersystems.net/2017/02/21/lowe-vector-catalog/).  Lowe rucksacks were tested by the Ranger Regiment around 1984 (source: https://www.facebook.com/groups/164093236986819/posts/4751017214961042/?comment_id=4751163974946366)

Fabric is like a green dominant ERDL (smaller print than real M81 woodland) and is similar to ALICE pack (400 or 420 denier packcloth) material, like SADF Niemoller Vest.
