It is some plastic of which the name currently eludes me. I don't know if these were originally made from a very soft plastic that was very flexible but now at least they are often very inflexible and brittle. Very handy if you are outside or in dirty environments, you could you wipe them down. The only problem is they don't age very well (well not for decades and decades anyway).

The suspension plate looks like it was glued to something at some point. Maybe he pinned and glued it to his jacket?
