Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French pantoufle.
Etymology: < Middle French, French pantoufle indoor shoe, slipper, (in early use also) elegant shoe, inner sole for pattens (1465 as a common noun; earlier (first half of the 15th cent.) in the name of Saint Pantouffle, a fictional saint; also in Middle French as pantoffle (1488), pantophle (1552 in Rabelais) and in Middle French, French as †pantouffle (1480)), origin uncertain and disputed: see Französisches etymol. Wörterbuch (at cited word) and H. E. Keller Etymologica (1958) 441–54.Compare Catalan †pantofla (1463; now plantofa (1527), with alteration after planta sole), Italian †pantofla (a1502), †pantufola (a1520), †pantoffola (a1529), pantofola (a1533), Occitan pantofla (1506), Spanish pantufla (1519), pantuflo (1525–9), pantufo (1534), Portuguese pantufo (1545 or earlier), and also Middle Dutch, Dutch pantoffel (end of the 15th cent. or earlier; also in Middle Dutch as pantoeffel and in Dutch (now regional (West Flanders)) as pantoefel ), Middle Low German pantoffel , pantüffel , pantuyfel (first half of the 16th cent.), German Pantoffel (end of the 15th cent.). The β. forms show various alterations of the ending after nouns and adjectives ending in -ple, -cle, -ble, following shift of stress to the first syllable.
A slipper; a loose shoe. In early use apparently: any type of indoor shoe, esp. applied to high-heeled cork-soled Spanish or Italian chopins (see chopine n.); also applied to outdoor overshoes or galoshes. In later use: spec. a slipper, sandal, or light shoe of exotic or foreign (esp. Asian) style. Frequently in plural. Now archaic and historical.The term also appears in a file of unpublished accounts from the Cely Papers, apparently referring to use in an earlier document of 1482: see Eng. Stud. (1961) 42 151.
