This might be a double definition.

'a warm shelter' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'obsessive hobbyist?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for anorak that I've seen before include "Jacket; inept person" , "Protection from the wet" , "Hooded waterproof jacket" , "Jacket for an obsessive?" , "European currency" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
