Savate was a French form of boxing in which the contestants used their feet rather than their fists. Its name is taken from the French word "savate" ("old shoe"). The sport was popular in France, particularly among the lower classes in the cities, before the introduction of the English form of boxing. Savate was most in vogue during the 18th century. 4, record 1, English, - savate

Boxe française. [...] Née vers 1820 dans le faubourg parisien de la Courtille, elle s'appelait alors la «savate» ou le «chausson» lorsqu'il s'agissait d'enseignement militaire. Vers 1850, Lecour ajoute la technique des poings à celle des pieds : c'est la Boxe française. 4, record 1, French, - savate
