Etymology

/taɴbi//tabi/

Shift in pronunciation from tanbi, the expected regular kan'on compound reading for the 単皮 spelling,[1][2][3] which appears in the Wamyō Ruijushō of 938 CE.

Originally referred to a leather shoe, which could be made from a single () animal hide ().[3][4][5] As footwear in Japan developed, so too did the sense of tabi. The modern sense of a split-toed sock arose from at least the late Kamakura period, around the late 1200s, early 1300s. However, the leather shoe sense was still in use in 1603, as evidenced by the relevant entry in the Nippo Jisho.[6]

The shift in reading was possibly influenced by the regular kun'yomi tabi of the term (tabi, travel, voyage, trip), as the tabi footwear was often worn for travel.
