Implement found in shoes (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoe

'implement' is the definition.
(hoe is a kind of implement)

'in shoes' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'HOE' is hidden in the letters of 'shoes'.

'found' is the link.

(Other definitions for hoe that I've seen before include "Romanians (anag) -- European enclave" , "Weed" , "Garden tool with a flat blade" , "Weeding tool" , "Garden tool for scraping up weeds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
