Word origin
The word 'thong' originated from the Old English word 'thwong,' which meant a narrow strip of leather. Over time, the term evolved to refer to both the skimpy underwear and the sandal style. The modern usage of 'thong' to describe a type of underwear became popular in the late 20th century, while the sandal version has been used for centuries in various cultures around the world.
