Herdado de Middle English: galoche

In summary

From Middle English galoche, from Old French galoche (“shoe with a wooden sole”), but further history is uncertain.
further theories
* From Vulgar Latin *galopium or Late Latin calopedia (“a wooden shoe; a shoe with a wooden sole”), from Ancient Greek κᾱλοπόδιον (kālopódion), diminutive of κᾱλόπους (kālópous, “shoemaker's block”), compound of κᾶλον (kâlon, “wood”) and πούς (poús, “foot”). (More at holt and foot.)
* From Late Latin gallicula, diminutive of Latin gallica (solea) (“Gallic (sandal)”).
* From Old French galette (“flat round cake”), from galet (“pebble”).
