Learner wearing this poor tattered garment (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

polo shirt

'garment' is the definition.
(polo shirt is a kind of garment)

'learner wearing this poor tattered' is the wordplay.
'learner' becomes 'l'.
'wearing' indicates putting letters inside.
'tattered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'this'+'poor'='thispoor'
'thispoor' is an anagram of 'pooshirt'.
'l' put inside 'pooshirt' is 'POLO SHIRT'.

(Another definition for polo shirt that I've seen is " Casual cotton top".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
