It's actually "chuppa". "Chupa" are those lollipops from Spain, aren't they?

Hmmm....stumped on this one. Chuppa sounds familiar....

No, that's "chuppah" - arbor / wedding canopy thing at Jewish weddings, but that's probably not it.

Then thinking about kind of boots, but those are "chukka" not chuppa.....

I dunno.

Brian, is this a true word or a slang word used for describing these.

The Hint is " Akinosan has many"
