Piper's Shoe Parlor

We were very excited at the opportunity to team up with Piper's Shoe Parlor this summer. On a street full of shoe stores, Piper's is one of our favorites and features a wide array of both American made and eco-friendly products. We had a chance to chat with the owner, Kipling, about her shop and what it means to her to Play Hookie.

What did you do before opening Piper's? I am lucky to have moved back to my home town of SF to raise my family! That is what I have been doing for the last 7 years. However, before that I was living in LA working in the music business. 

Describe your ideal "Playing Hookie Day." Of course hanging out with my family- including our Bulldog! Going skateboarding, surfing, roller skating, being active!

What's your favorite cocktail? Margarita on the rocks with lots of salt!

What's your favorite beach/seaside town? Bolinas

What's your best travel tip? Moisturizer! 

Be sure to visit Kipling and the rest of the Piper's team on Haight Street and check out their selection of Blu Kicks, womens and mens slip on shoes, along with all the other great brands they offer.
