Holiday Gift Guide #1



Holiday Gifts at Pie Footwear
It's December, which means holiday gift giving. Whether you need somthing for an office mate or your signifcant other, we are putting out holiday gift ideas this month to make your shopping a little more fun and less of a task.

Here is the first installment of holiday gift  ideas from Pie and it's all about the stocking stuffer! Yes, those small gifts or that little something extra you needed to check someone off your list. We have lots of great items in the shop that can fit this bill. Here are a few of our favorites:

Upcycle your gift with a bag from 5th Season Designs:
All 5th Season products are hand-crafted, one of a kind & upcycled from discarded materials. 5th Season hopes to resonate the importance of waste reduction through a creative approach of looking at consumer products beyond their original intended purposes.
Shown MiniMaggie - $12 & Leah Tote - $66

Stuff your stockings with socks:
Everyone loves a nice wool sock, but it can be hard to cough up the change to buy a pair for yourself. So help your friends and family upgrade their sock drawers this holiday, their toes will thank you!

Teko: socks are beyond organic with certified organic wool farming, chlorine-free wool treatments and are made int he USA with wind-power. Made with 55% organic merino wool, Teko socks are super comfortable and durable.
Shown: Men's Santa Fe Crew $18.95

Goodhew: socks are crafted of their custom Cashmerino/Bamboo. This fiber blend balances the durability, environmental friendliness and thermoregulation properties of wool with naturally anti-microbial and luxurious bamboo. Goodhew socks are made in the USA with USA grown wool.
Shown: Eliza Knee High $18 & Zig Zag Crew $16

Injnji: otherwise known as the toe socks! You don't need to own a pair of FiveFingers to appreciate a nice pair of toe socks. Injinji socks are great for trail running, hiking, trekking and adventure sports.  They have an anatomical 5 toe design, wick moisture from between the toes and through out the entire toe box. Keeping each little piggy warm and cozy.
Shown: Outdoor Series (Wool) Over the Calf $24

Get funky and give a uniquely fabulous handmade hat from Bunny Huggins.
We love Bunny Huggins hats. They are comfortable and can be worn all day without getting hat head, I never thought this was possible! Bunny Huggins hats are locally made form all recycled materials and as a bonus each hat is reversible so it's two hats in one for the gift that keeps on giving. Bunny's hats come in 3 sizes: S, M, L
Shown: Bunny Huggins Hat $48

Still not sure what to get?  Pie Gift Certificates are always available for purchase in store or over the phone.

Happy holiday shopping. Keep it local!
