I tent to agree more with the clothing interpretation that is why I used question marks in my initial post.

In my opinion the first image might represent a "melote".
The term appears in Homer and describes a lampskin kind of jerkin.

I am not sure about the second, not about the material.
It could be anything.

Kind regards
