stogyadj.n.

Brit.

/ˈstəʊɡi/, U.S.

/ˈstoʊɡi/

Forms: stogie. Also stoga, stoggie.

Etymology: Originally stoga, short for Conestoga, the name of a town in Pennsylvania, used attributive in Conestoga wagon (see Thornton American Glossary). It is alleged that stoga boots and stoga cigars were so called because they were used by the ‘stoga drivers’, i.e. the drivers of the Conestoga wagons plying between Wheeling and Pittsburgh.
