Straightens things out? (5)

I believe the answer is:

irons

(Other definitions for irons that I've seen before include "Metal leg shackles" , "Fetters, handcuffs" , "Jeremy ---, Br. actor; golf clubs" , "Devices restricting personal freedom in prisons" , "sporting equipment" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
