Crossword Genius

Rubbish underwear (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pants

This clue is a double definition.

'rubbish' is the first definition.
(informal term meaning poor-quality)

'underwear' is the second definition.
(underpants)

(Other definitions for pants that I've seen before include "Rubbish -- underwear" , "Undergarments; rubbish" , "Useless (slang) - gasps" , "longs" , "Knickers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Mirror and The Daily Express.
