Obstructed by footwear? (7,2)
I believe the answer is:
clogged up
'obstructed' is the definition.
(clogging up is a kind of obstructing)
'footwear?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'footwear?' could be 'clog' (clog is a kind of footwear) and 'clog' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'by' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
