This is true. The part I didn't put in the OP was this:
I avoid pants and shirts that use hook and loop like the plague. I prefer buttons for my pockets, and buttons or zipper for my fly. However, a couple of my really super handy pouches do have it, and so do my gloves. I love those gloves, and I can't really see how they could do without hook and loop on the wrist. But the problem is that I do have to take them off from time to time, especially to operate the buttons on my pants or to run my phone.
