Who invented VELCRO® Brand hook and loop? George de Mestral
It began with a burdock burr, a tiny seed covered in hundreds of 'hooks' that naturally catch onto the microscopic loops that cover fur, hair & clothing. The burr was an unassuming marvel of nature and a minor headache for man, until one day in 1941 when the burdock burr, Swiss engineer George de Mestral, and his dog crossed paths on a hunting trip in the Alps. Inspired by the burr, the inventor created the world's first hook-and-loop fastener. 70+ years on, that chance meeting has proven to be remarkably fruitful.
