Hairy (7)

I believe the answer is:

hirsute

'hairy' is the definition.
(I know that hairy can be written as hirsute)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hirsute that I've seen before include "Covered with hair" , "Unshaven" , "Hairy and shaggy" , "Bearded" , "covered in hairs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, The Independent, The Guardian and The Telegraph.
