52 years ago my husband who was my then boyfriend asked me to replace a zipper in his work pants. Velcro had just been invented so I took the easy way out and used it to repair. The problem with this was that velcro was such a new concept that all the others wanted to see him rip open and then close his fly which became a real nuisance.
