  • It is the opposite of discalced, which means barefoot or wearing sandals.
Examples
  • Adjective:
    • The calced Carmelites follow a different tradition from the discalced branch of the order.
    • In the 16th century, the reform led to a division between calced and discalced friars.
Advanced Usage

    • the calced Augustinians
    • a calced monk
Variants and Related Words
  • Discalced (adj.): The direct antonym, meaning barefoot or wearing only sandals, especially as a religious practice.
    • discalced Carmelite nuns
Synonyms
  • Shod: Wearing shoes. (This is the general term, while calced is the specific religious term.)
Notes on Meaning
  • This word has a very narrow, domain-specific meaning. It does not have general, everyday usage. It refers solely to the historical practice within certain Catholic religious orders (like the Carmelites, Augustinians, or Franciscans) where some members wore shoes and others did not as a sign of differing interpretations of austerity and rule.
Adjective
