He removes coats — hers are worn (7)
I believe the answer is:
shearer
'he removes coats' is the definition.
'hers are worn' is the wordplay.
'worn' indicates an anagram (worn can mean damaged).
'hers'+'are'='hersare'
'hersare' anagrammed gives 'SHEARER'.
(Other definitions for shearer that I've seen before include "Alan - - , Newcastle striker" , "One that's fleeced" , "one who removes coat" , "Sheep barber?" , "Wool cutter - ex-England footballer" .)
