The term "bootlegging" originated in the early 19th century in the United States, referring to the practice of concealing illegal alcohol in boots or other clothing for smuggling. It became particularly associated with the Prohibition era (1920-1933), when the manufacture, sale, and transportation of Alcoholic Beverages were banned. Bootleggers would often transport liquor from Canada or distill it illegally in hidden locations. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass other forms of illegal trade and smuggling.
