I thought I'd share this link with anyone who is looking for OD/Foliage Green/Tan hook and loop Velcro for modern flight jackets and flight suits to mount patches.

http://www.supplycaptain.com/index.cfm? ... duct_ID=31

For the longest time I could not find it. This company has milspec 4x12" sheets in the various colors for only $4 a strip. Up until now I could only find wholesalers that sold it in 50 yard rolls at 2.65/yard.

Cheers,
Peter

Guys,

I've dealt with these guys and they do good work, both their embroidered name tags, and embossed name tags, plus all sorts of velco goodies. See here:

The diecut shapes are really good, the diecut giving a good edge that doesn't tend to fray or catch.

Regards,

Colin,

I just ordered 2 name plates from those folks. The selection and quality is much better than another company I used once for nameplates. Good to know they also have the velcro.

Thanks for the link.

Peter

Peter,

I wouldn't recommend them if they had not been good. Everything I have bought from them to date has been spot on. Good service too.

Only catch is, the looks I get from the wife everytime I need velcro or patch sewn with her sewing machine.

Regards,
