[Names] Xue (boots).
Shizhen said: Xue are leather shoes, used to adorn the feet, hence the character consists of the radical 'ge' (leather) and 'hua' (ornament). Liu Xi's *Shiming* states: Xue means to stride. Convenient for mounting horses. Originally Hu (northern nomadic) attire. King Wuling of Zhao liked wearing short leather boots, and later generations made long leather boots. For medicinal use, those made of cowhide should be employed.
