Etymology

From Middle French savate (“old shoe”), of unknown origin. Possibly from Tatar чабата (çabata, “overshoes”), ultimately either from Ottoman Turkish چاپوت‎ (çaput, çapıt, “patchwork, tatters”), from Ottoman Turkish چاپمق‎ (çapmak, “to slap on”), or of Iranian origin, cognate with modern Persian چپت‎ (čapat, “a kind of traditional leather shoe”). Akin to Norman chavette, Spanish zapato, Italian ciabatta and Portuguese sapato.
