More pliable or malleable (6)

I believe the answer is:

softer

'more pliable or malleable' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for softer that I've seen before include "Less hard, more malleable" , "Less hard, more yielding" , "Less firm, loud" , "More pliable or malleable" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
