Backless shoe (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mule

'backless shoe' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for mule that I've seen before include "Slipper - beast of burden" , "Crossbreed" , "Offspring of a donkey and a mare" , "Obstinate creature" , "Drug smuggler" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the USA Today and The New York Times.
