Thanks Eisteddfod winner for tunic (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tabard

'tunic' is the definition.
(tabard is a kind of tunic)

'thanks eisteddfod winner' is the wordplay.
'thanks' becomes 'ta' (UK informal version of 'thank you').
'eisteddfod winner' becomes 'bard' (I've seen this before).
'ta'+'bard'='TABARD'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for tabard that I've seen before include "Sleeveless jacket" , "Jerkin; heraldic coat" , "[A] top" , "Herald's jacket" , "Clobber" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
