Crossword Genius

Footwear in sack (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boot

This clue is a double definition.

'footwear' is the first definition.
(boot is a kind of footwear)

'sack' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for boot that I've seen before include "Luggage compartment" , "Dismiss" , "Sturdy shoe; start (a computer)" , "Kick; footwear" , "eg Wellington" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Mirror.
