I agree, the use of Velcro detracts from the design of these suits. My first, late 1960s, British-made suit (Typhoon) also had metal fasteners. Incidentally, Velcro was invented back in 1948 and patented in 1955. Details of its origins and development at inventors.about.com/library/weekly/aa091297.htmDavid When were beavertail suits with Velcro-fastened crotch straps first marketed? I know Parkway Fabricators marketed such a wetsuit as early as 1973.
