They weren't exactly quick, Plastic was available back in the day when Whites was around (before the acquisition) and they were testing them. Then, tests showed Delam issues, which we all saw and realized. Then, they got bought. I think the zipper change made more sense to help keep pricing low, as costs rose elsewhere as they can be a little less expensive which adds up. Same on the Neck System, the Necktite is still a cheaper system, although I agree it's inferior to the quickneck.

I wouldn't say it's a "do no wrong", I guess I just didn't dig deeper on a response as I was out camping :wink: Ask away though, I'm an open book and back to work!
Just a note that I appreciate your responses and the time you took to write them. I know and respect the experience you have with Whites and other brands. Thanks for balancing out your comments with the additional info.
