Clowns' props (6)
I believe the answer is:
stilts
'clowns' props' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for stilts that I've seen before include "Poles used for walking high above the ground" , "Tall sticks for lofty walking" , "Sticks to help you walk tall" , "Long sticks for elevated walking" , "Walking poles; birds" .)
