Outdated and damaged bootees wrapped around leg initially (8)
I believe the answer is:
obsolete
'outdated' is the definition.
(synonyms)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for obsolete that I've seen before include "'No longer used, out of date (8)'" , "No longer current" , "Boots eel away, being out of date" , "being out of practice" , "Obese lot may be out of date" .)
