Special item (10)

I believe the answer is:

particular

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'special' is the first definition.
('particular' can be a synonym of 'special')

'item' is the second definition.
('particular' can be a synonym of 'item')

(Other definitions for particular that I've seen before include "Fussy" , "item" , "Fog over London" , "Special" , "Fastidious; individual" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
