Well, the archetypal bandolero does wear a short waistcoat, so perhaps it's as simple as that; this tells us what KIND of footpad.

tonyw: I was just going to say the same thing- bolero jacket. Word play, though?

Suggests the word bolero because it contains it, suggests the bolero itself (literally) because he wears one?

Am I just having a bad day or was that a really boring crossword? Too many obscure words and few clever clues, only things required were patience and a dictionary.
