Rather than pulling on the velcro itself, I pulled the connecting tab. Now it's completely broken after owning it for only 1 week. I am very disappointed in the design of your cervical collar. My wife's cervical collar is also a Core Products brand, but it has a wide velcro connector and has never broken in the 3 years she's owned it. I plan to avoid buying Core Products products in the future. Robert where-I-live
