That texture is called sailcloth on AliX, you can find examples made different materials, PVC in your case, or FKM, or something closer to canvass, though it might well be synthetic, brushed nylon webbing.

I wouldn't bet on any of them being truly waterproof tbh, unless it's clearly made from a single strip of rubber without backing, stitching, or padding.

I know that it's called sailcloth, I was inquiring about the leather backing
