Abstract
A footwear incorporating one or more of straps that cooperate with the upper reinforced edges of the quarter portions for the shoe, so that when the straps are folded over they are tightly held in place by means of fasteners, such as a hook and pile style fastener, or other fastener, or other style of securing means, for locking the shoe into closure. The tongue of the shoe is conveniently and properly positioned through the addition of a loop through which at least one of the straps locate, to assure that all of these upper shoe components are maintained in their proper positioning and alignment not only after the shoe has been fitted, but even during prolonged and sustained usage.
