Velcro sucks. I bought an awesome jacket last year, with velcro, and took it to a sewing place and had buttons put on. I love that jacket, even more now! I didn't think the velcro would be an issue, but it really was. Not for adjusting, but just even rubbing the cuffs on your pants, when putting your hands in your pockets, pretty much any movement had it crinkling a little.
