Crossword Genius

Removing jacket, climbs branch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

limb

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

'branch' is the definition.
(I know that branch can be written as limb)

'removing jacket climbs' is the wordplay.
'LIMB' is hidden within the letters.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for limb that I've seen before include "Bough" , "Part of body or branch of tree" , "Substantial branch from a tree trunk" , "Branch - arm - leg" , "Tentacle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail.
