Colour dyeing Ventile fabric.

I have a cotton Ventile North Sea oil rig helicopter safety immersion suit.

 

It`s a smock type jacket and overtrousers.

 

In terms of it`s design it would make an excellent `fowling suit. Only trouble is, it`s orange!

 

I`m guessing that, being cotton, it`s current colour is down to a vegetable based dye.

 

Question is, does anyone know if it is possible to re-dye this material in this colour a suitble shade of green or brown?

 

If it is possible, which dye should I use?
