Origin of the word Gabardine
- "fine worsted cloth," 1904, earlier gaberdine "long, coarse outer garment" (1510s), from Sp. gabardina, from M.Fr. galverdine, which is perhaps from M.H.G. wallevart "pilgrimage," in the sense of "pilgrim's cloak." The Spanish form perhaps influenced by gab?n "overcoat" and tabardina "coarse coat."
