An item of footwear (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sock

'an item of footwear' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sock that I've seen before include "Clothing; punch" , "Hit; garment" , "Hit hard; woollen item" , "Item of clothing" , "Hit hard - footwear" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
