Crossword Genius

See other strange device for footwear (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shoe tree

'device for footwear' is the definition.
(device for hanging shoes)

'see other strange' is the wordplay.
'strange' indicates an anagram.
'see'+'other'='seeother'
'seeother' anagrammed gives 'SHOE-TREE'.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
