Crossword Genius

Designed shoe for dancers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoofers

'dancers' is the definition.
(hoofer is a kind of dancer)

'designed shoe for' is the wordplay.
'designed' indicates an anagram (designed with the letters).
'shoe'+'for'='shoefor'
'shoefor' is an anagram of 'HOOFERS'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
