Depending on the material you could put the straps in hot water to shrink them, Other than that your best bet is probably trying to sew/hem them shorter

how much sewing experience do you have? do you have a sewing machine?

you know the little loops at the back where the metal clip thing on the strap slips into. i think the easiest way to go about it would be to add two additional little loops closer to the middle of the back. it would pull them in like crossing them but not need as much length from the strap.
