Weird sort of route (5)
I believe the answer is:
outre
'weird' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'sort of route' is the wordplay.
'sort of' indicates an anagram.
'route' anagrammed gives 'OUTRE'.
(Other definitions for outre that I've seen before include "Shockingly unconventional" , "flamboyant" , "appear eccentric" , "Remarkable" , "deviating from the norm" .)
