Go-go boot
Go-go boots are a low-heeled style of women's fashion boot first introduced in the mid-1960s. The original go-go boots, as defined by André Courrèges in 1964, were white, low-heeled, and mid-calf in height, a specific style which is sometimes called the Courrèges boot. Since then, the term go-go boot has come to include the knee-high, square-toed boots with block heels that were very popular in the 1960s and 1970s; as well as a number of variations including kitten heeled versions and colours other than white.
== Etymology ==
The term ''go-go'' is derived from the French expression ''à gogo'', meaning "in abundance, galore", which is in turn derived from the ancient French word ''la gogue'' for "joy, happiness".〔Le Petit Robert: GOGO (À), 1440; de l'a. fr. ''gogue'' "réjouissance"〕 The term "go-go" has also been explained as a 1964 back-formation of the 1962 slang term "go", meaning something that was "all the rage"; the term "go-go dancer" first appeared in print in 1965. The go-go boot is presumed to have been named after the dance style.〔
