Crossword Genius

Find a shoe badly made (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fashioned

'made' is the definition.
(fashioning is a kind of making)

'find a shoe badly' is the wordplay.
'badly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'find'+'a'+'shoe'='findashoe'
'findashoe' anagrammed gives 'FASHIONED'.

(Another definition for fashioned that I've seen is " Did model".)

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