Shorts pound, shocking her donees (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lederhosen

'shorts' is the definition.

'pound shocking her donees' is the wordplay.
'pound' becomes 'l'.
'shocking' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'her'+'donees'='herdonees'
'herdonees' is an anagram of 'ederhosen'.
'l'+'ederhosen'='LEDERHOSEN'

(Other definitions for lederhosen that I've seen before include "Bavarian leather shorts" , "Alpine shorts" , "trousers displayed" , "Clothing" , "Bavarian shorts with braces" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
