Worn out form of pride etc (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

decrepit

'worn out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'form of pride etc' is the wordplay.
'form of' indicates an anagram (the letters need to be in another 'form').
'pride'+'etc'='prideetc'
'prideetc' is an anagram of 'DECREPIT'.

(Other definitions for decrepit that I've seen before include "Feeble - dilapidated" , "like a crate?" , "Run-down by old age or hard use" , "Depicter in state of dilapidation" , "Worn and broken down by use" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
