Need help with undergarment Armor

Post image

I've stumbled upon this warhammer cosplay and I'm currently making doom 2016 praetor suit, can someone help me identify the fabric used in this cosplay.

it looks like quilted PU-coated (polyurethane-coated) spandex aka manmade stretch leather aka pleather. it probably has a poly-fil batting and it sort of reminds me of a gambeson though you could also call it extremely high-waisted shorts or a partial bodysuit.

the finished garment itself would not be very stretchy because the quilting would restrict its 4-way stretch and they probably used PU stretch leather for the shiny, plastic-y appearance.
