Adjust foot warmers to improve performance? (4,4,5,2)
I believe the answer is:
pull ones socks up
'improve performance?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'adjust foot warmers' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'foot warmers' could be 'socks' (I've seen this before) and 'socks' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pull ones socks up that I've seen before include "Make renewed effort" , "what suspenders do" , "Try to improve" , "shelter inferior members" .)
