Venomous snake in footwear (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moccasin

I believe this is a double definition.

'venomous snake' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'footwear' is the second definition.
(I know this)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for moccasin that I've seen before include "American Indian shoe" , "Put one's foot in it" , "Footwear" , "Venomous American snake" , "Slipper; snake" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
