Outrage, having lost second shoe (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sandal

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'shoe' is the definition.
(I know that sandal is a type of shoe)

'outrage having lost second' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'lost' could be 'l' (abbreviation in sporting league tables) and 'l' is found in the answer.
'second' could be 's' (common abbreviation) and 's' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'anda' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sandal that I've seen before include "Light footwear" , "Wood" , "Light open shoe" , "Item of footwear" , "Light strapped shoe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
