鞜

U+979C "鞜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the radical for leather (革) and a phonetic component, primarily used in historical or classical Chinese texts to denote a type of leather shoe or boot, often associated with traditional footwear made from animal hide. It appears in ancient dictionaries and literary works, where it refers to a specific style of foot covering worn in early dynasties, but it is not commonly used in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean languages, surviving mostly as a specialized or archaic term within sinological studies.
