Blucher

/ˈbluːkər/ noun

Definition

A type of strong leather shoe or boot with overlapping laces that originated from military footwear.

Etymology

Named after Prussian General Gebhard von Blücher (1742-1819), who was famous for his military campaigns in the Napoleonic Wars. The shoe style was named in his honor in the early 19th century.

Kelly Says

The blucher shoe is named after a general who helped defeat Napoleon, and the shoe became standard military issue because its overlapping design made it so durable it could handle the toughest terrain!
