		<description><![CDATA[Here is an old customer's order, and the first step of making a pair of shoes. Personally I thought that the upper pattern for a chukka boot seemed easy, but it is really not. There are plenty of small details, which can make your life miserable. You make a perfect pair, then you realize the the wind can easily blow in at the sides of the laces. Oh yes, it happened the first time (years ago) when I made a chukka for myself. Since then, I always make a pair for test from any new idea. (Which means: many shoes go into my own wardrobe. But someone has to get this job done too, no? :) ).<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=handmadeshoes.wordpress.com&blog=5376042&post=792&subd=handmadeshoes&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
