The velcro on the pockets of the shorts and the pants, but especially the shorts. Doesn't close so well, and seems like it will wear very quickly.
Not a big deal, but I think I'd prefer something other than velcro.

Got some two years old, fabric starting to wear through, Velcro still holding on.
Never seen a lawyer take out a wallet, though, how do you plan to wear the Velcro out?

Lawyers do take their wallets out... where do you think they keep those corporate gold cards for those three martini lunches at Morton's?

Add weapons cleaning solvents and lubes, dirt, blood, diesel, etc., and you have an SF comparison.
