I hate the new style of strap.  The old version was elastic enough that you could put them on with a little stretch to the strap and take them off.

This style with Velcro has no give so the Velcro must be loosened and tighten each time.  You can get them on snugger than the old style, so I guess the strap makes sense for an off-road sport clog - but not sure buying an off road sport clog to use for sports off road actually makes any sense.  For me clogs are not a sporting shoe unless you want to damage your ankles.
