Best Answer

the tip of a shoe is called an aglet.

The word "aglet" (or "aiglet") originates from Old French "aguillette" (or "aiguillette"), which is the diminutive of "aguille" (or "aiguille"), meaning "needle". This in turn comes from the original Latin word for needle: "acus". Hence, an "aglet" is like a short "needle" at the end of a shoelace.
