    历史

    1905-06, Arthur Conan Doyle, Sir Nigel The old tunic, overtunic and cyclas were too sad and simple for the new fashions, so now strange and brilliant cotehardies, pourpoints, courtepies, paltocks, hanselines and many other wondrous garments, particoloured or diapered, with looped, embroidered or escalloped edges, flamed and glittered round the King.

词源

Middle English paltok, of uncertain origin; perhaps a contraction of earlier *paletok, from pal (“pall”) + -et + -ok. Compare paletot, pelt (“animal hide”).
