Took ‘em long enough to figure out that velcro sucks.

I'm going to disagree with you- a little. Velcro has it's place but for the most part I don't like it for pockets. I have Velcro for my baseball type hats and I think it's great. I like it for cold weather gloves and a number of other non-clothing uses. So it depends on the application.

Here we're talking about military. Velcro is terrible for military appliations. Too noisy. Refastens itself, making the "put away" take longer.
