Coarse stuff from males (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

buckram

'coarse stuff' is the definition.
(type of coarse linen)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for buckram that I've seen before include "stiffening" , "Coarse stiffened cloth" , "stiff stuff!" , "Coarse cotton fabric stiffened with glue" , "Coarse stuff" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
