How to Say "Boots" in Japanese

ブーツ

būtsu[bɯ̟ːt͡sɨ]

The Japanese word for "boots" is ブーツ (būtsu).

ブーツ refers to footwear that covers the foot and ankle and extends up the leg.

How do you pronounce it?

būtsu

In Japanese fashion, ブーツ are often worn with 'loose socks', a style that became a cultural phenomenon among students in the 1990s.
Japanese speakers use the word ブーツ for both a single boot and a pair, as the language does not typically mark plurals with a different word ending.
While ブーツ is the standard word, you might see the word 長靴, pronounced 'nagagutsu', used for rain boots or rubber boots in everyday conversation.
