Questions about footwear (5)
I believe the answer is:
pumps
This clue is a double definition.
'questions' is the first definition.
(as in to pump someone for information)
'footwear' is the second definition.
(pumps is a kind of footwear)
'about' is the link.
(Other definitions for pumps that I've seen before include "Light dancing shoes - force air into" , "leading questions" , "Dancing shoes - may be manned!" , "Plimsolls" , "Forces liquid to move; light shoes" .)
