A sandal having easily adjustable straps that allows a user to quickly modify the tightness of the sandal to adjust to the exact dimensions of the user's foot in order to secure the most comfortable grip for either casual or athletic activities. The sandal exhibits a lightweight, robust, high strength, flexible construction including an elongated sole for supporting a foot, where the sole has a toe end and a heel end, a center toe strap, an interior strap, and an exterior strap. The toe strap is anchored in the toe and includes a distal end fixedly connected to a pivot means, such as a buckle, for securing and redirecting the side straps. The interior and exterior straps are fixedly secured near the middle of the sole of the sandal and extend forwardly with a slip fit through the front pivot means, then rearwardly back upon themselves. The interior and exterior straps have a free end portion on which a fastener device, such as a hook and loop strip is mounted, which allows it to be adjustably fashioned back upon itself. The adjustment of both the interior and exterior end straps allows the user to adjust the tightness of the sandal to prevent slippage and to secure the sandal snugly to the users foot, thereby minimizing the typical "flip-flop" movement and sound associated with nonadjustable sandals.
