I think i found it. "Aerocatch" outa England?

I think there are other companies out there too, but AeroCatch is the most popular.

There are actually two styles, these are the ones I bought and they are basically what's in the photo you posted. AeroCatch Plus:

Yep those are Aerocatch . But buy them directly from one of there dealers, there was fake ones being sold and failing.

Can you define 'failing'? I have a set of these, and I love them, but I'm having a problem with one of them not wanting to close (it gets stuck open) without a little extra nudge...

You would have to go directly to Aerocatches website and identify if you have replicas or the real Aerocatch. If you paid less then $150 for the set most likely you have replicas. I believe the real Aerocatch have a lifetime warranty but don't quote me. I attached the link to identify your latches. Hope it helps.
