Embodiments of the present application provide a footwear strap and a footwear having the same. An article of footwear may have a strap element and a heel structural element inside the strap element. The heel structural element may have two connecting arms, each of the two connecting arms having a medial arm and a lateral arm connected with the medial arm. The lateral arm and the medial arm may be integrally molded, and the lateral arm may be connected with the upper rear portion. The footwear strap may be assembled to the footwear and a compressible layer is located on an inner side of the heel structural element, and the compressible layer entirely covers the upper rear portion, at least partially covers the medial arm and the lateral arm, and gradually tapers or terminates along the inner side of the medial arm and the inner side of the lateral arm.

An adjustable heel strap is connected to the medial flap and the lateral flap and extends around the heel end of the sole. One of the medial flap or the lateral flap are adapted to overlap the other of the lateral flap or the medial flap, respectively, and the toe cap is adjustably connected at a distal end thereof to one or both of the medial flap and/or the lateral flap.

The present invention relates to an article of footwear for walking on sand and other surfaces. The outsole of the footwear includes a lugged tread pattern like that of a tractor tire for traction while walking on sand and other like surfaces. Cushioning on the insole moderates the impact when a wearer walks on a hard surface. The footwear has an upper section to cover a portion of the foot of a user and provides a semi-closed design, wherein the upper section has a pair of inter-woven flaps and is sewn or glued to the insole of the footwear.
