  • Looking good. Are you pleased or are you already planning the next few pairs?!

  • I am really enjoying it, before I started I’d had an idea of what I wanted to do but some elements of this were deemed a leap too far for a first time maker so I’m using this pair and the time to learn the techniques - I don’t really know how these will turn out as yet and I’m certainly happy for them to be a little rough, kind of aiming for a chunky trickers-esque sole and stance as the plain upper is pretty plain… I’ve already got some other pairs in mind - I’m adapting a pattern from an old pairs of Tod’s chukkas I’ve beaten up and will also try and rebuild them as well (Blake stitched currently, will go for normal holdfast then maybe a crepe sole like a posh Wallabee)

    In other news, found these in a sale at last!
