Shoe strings (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

laces

'shoe strings' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for laces that I've seen before include "Shoestrings" , "Shoe ties" , "Scale for shoe fasteners" , "Cords for fastening shoes" , "Scale for boot fasteners" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Jonesin Crosswords, the L.A. Times Daily, the Canadiana, the Jonesin', the Sydney Morning Herald and The Mirror.
