Hit — item of clothing (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sock

This clue is a double definition.

'hit' is the first definition.
(I know that sock is a more specific form of the action hit)

'item of clothing' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for sock that I've seen before include "Item of footwear" , "Strike, hose" , "One going into Oxford maybe" , "This partly protects member" , "bash" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
