Punches hose (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

socks

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'punches' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'hose' is the second definition.
(term for socks or stockings)

(Other definitions for socks that I've seen before include "Are belts" , "Hits; some clothing" , "pair of garments" , "Disappointment at Xmas" , "Foot covers" .)

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