Overall, we are mad to cut foreign tour (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outerwear

'overall' is the definition.
(clothing worn over other clothes)

'we are mad to cut foreign tour' is the wordplay.
'mad' indicates an anagram.
'to cut' is an insertion indicator.
'foreign' is an anagram indicator (foreign order of the letters).
'we'+'are'='weare'
'weare' with letters rearranged gives 'erwea'.
'tour' is an anagram of 'outr'.
'erwea' going inside 'outr' is 'OUTERWEAR'.

(Other definitions for outerwear that I've seen before include "Top clothes" , "waterproof?" , "Coats, for example" , "Certain garments" , "winter clothes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
