Crossword Genius

Item of footwear in sack (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boot

This clue is a double definition.

'item of footwear' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

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

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for boot that I've seen before include "Stout shoe" , "Sturdy footwear" , "Sturdy shoe; start (a computer)" , "eg Wellington" , "may be packed for a journey" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
