I found this in Hanover Va. Having trouble figuring out what it might have held together.

I have a pair of bib overalls that have 2 buttons riveted on the top front to hold the metal loops that are attached to the straps that go over the shoulders. They look just like that.

MT_Joe is probably correct. Overalls...Carhart...Levi's.
