Island shorts (7)
I believe the answer is:
bermuda
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'island' is the first definition.
(Bermuda is an example)
'shorts' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for bermuda that I've seen before include "Islands in the north-west Atlantic" , "N. Atlantic island group" , "Island group in NW Atlantic" , "Rub dame up the wrong way on the islands" , "Producer of rum" .)
