Piper's Holiday Gift Guide

We wouldn't be Piper's if we didn't start this gift guide out with boots! Everyone needs and wants them. Make someone extra happy this year with a pair of Wolverine 1000 Miles or these lovely Miistas!!

We have a TON of jewelry made by local designers. These three are from San Francisco artists Hellbent, 1228, and What About Phoenix. Come see our entire jewelry selection! Prices for these particular pieces are $60, $112, and $88.

Chrome. So practical for this city. Made in the USA. Local. Functional. Easy. What more needs to be said. This limited color way "Mini Metro" bag is $120.

Make someone's year with these bad boys! Super Sunglasses are handmade in Italy, but don't wait too long, these things fly off the shelf! $175.

Mission Workshop. San Francisco's newest bike messenger bag company is a dream come true. Made in the USA, with a lifetime guarantee, this gift will last! The "Rambler" backpack doubles in capacity! $239.

Australian company EMU prides themselves on using all Australian grown sheepskin products. They were also the first brand in the world to develop water resistant sheepskin footwear! Perfect for kids who love to jump in puddles! Sizes start at 0 months and go to 18+ months for babies. We have kids styles has well! Starting at $39.

Zig Zag aka "winos" the ultimate "on-a-budget" gift for him this year. Originally from the 1970's this timeless, comfortable shoe is very affordable! $21-$27.

Found exclusively in SF at Piper's, Moonflower jewelry is all handmade using sterling silver and semi-precious stones and fossils. Feel good giving a gift that is not only beautiful, but made entirely by hand. Prices range from $90 to $270.

How can you go wrong with a pair of Dr. Martens? Super comfortable and they stand the test of time in both fashion and function! Did we mention they are also affordable? Both of these styles go for $120. Not too shabby.

We love Urbanears! A rainbow of colors to choose from, and your friends can plug their headphones into yours! So brilliant! $60. Get one for yourself, and all of your pals.

One of the best things about San Francisco is that it's cold enough to have a collection of beanies! Our new favorite is this thick waffle knit one by Brixton. The perfect stocking stuffer for only $24!
Now this is a gift! Ethanmade bags are all made by hand here in San Francisco. Wax coated canvas protects from the elements, as well as produces a rugged, unique look. Timeless, effortless, perfect. $195.

This is Penelope Piper Whalen-Dega

She is my Niece
She is reason the store is called Piper's Shoe Parlor
Her first word was dog-dog
And one day she will rule the world
