Why not just tie it once and slip it over your head the same way?

Certainly not unprofessional, but I'd have a tough time taking myself seriously LoL. Like wearing velcro-sneakers!

I always had trouble keeping it up, after a couple hours it usually had begun to sag.

The zipper tie that is. I ended up returning to the standard model since clip on ties really do look like crap.

Hahaha...yeaaah. Anyway, you do always end up with that gap there at your top button. No thanks.

Zipper ties look fine, you can't even tell. I don't like clip-ons but I wear one anyway because of the "break-away" feature...don't want some belligerent to choke me out with it.

Is that something you believe there is a legitment risk of happening?

Required by the FAA.
Regarding zipper ties, if yours is unzipping then you got a bad one. I had that problem with one once, returned it and the new one worked fine.
