Abstract (en)
Apparatus and associated methods may relate to a boot having independently adjustable first and second straps with the first strap located at an ankle portion of the boot and the second strap located at an instep portion of the boot. In an illustrative example, the first and second straps may each be routed through one or more eyelets in a zig-zag configuration. In some embodiments, each strap may be routed through an adjustment buckle permitting a wearer to secure the boot by simply tugging each strap's free end. In some embodiments, the dual strap-fasteners may be removably installed to a boot. In an exemplary embodiment, the removable fastener may have both an ankle strap circumscribing the boot near a wearer's lower ankle and a stirrup strap looping under the outsole. In various examples, the boot may be comfortably secured to a wearer's foot in an easy and quick manner.
