At Piper and Dune®, we celebrate the essence of New England, from the endless sea-salt summers in Rhode Island to cozy, snowy winters in Vermont. Picture sunlit days building sandcastles, bonfires on the Cape, and adventures on the water. Imagine winter sledding and igloo forts in Maine, pond hockey in Connecticut, and long nights of hot cocoa and board games.

We’re Matthew and Christine Curtis, and Piper and Dune® is our lifelong dream. Named after our love for the seashore—Piper for the sandpiper and Dune for the sand dune—we wanted to bring the charm and traditions of New England right to you.

Our store is filled with handpicked, unique gifts that capture the nostalgia of your favorite New England memories. From artisan goods and fishing gear to home accessories and outdoor essentials, we offer a variety of products for every occasion.

At Piper and Dune®, we believe in more than just great products. We’re committed to protecting the beautiful places we cherish, which is why we offer eco-friendly items and give back to our local community through fundraising and charitable donations.

Every purchase supports environmental causes and community initiatives, helping preserve our beloved landscapes for future generations. So, whether you’re browsing online or visiting our Southbury, CT store, we hope our products bring a smile to your face and remind you of the special places you love.

MOGSki is a niche winter footwear and accessories brand that combines traditional craftsmanship with modern design and sustainable practices. The company is built on a commitment to individuality, quality, and environmental mindfulness, and it has quickly distinguished itself in a competitive market through its artisanal approach and innovative business model.

Company Overview and Identity
MOGSki is a Connecticut-registered company led by a female entrepreneur who turned a personal need into a thriving business. Born from a student’s passion for solving the shortcomings of conventional winter boots, the brand merges heritage with modern innovation. Its identity is rooted in a dedication to celebrating uniqueness—each product is crafted to be as individual as the person who wears it.

Product Range and Craftsmanship
Handcrafted Winter Boots:
At the heart of MOGSki’s offering is a line of handcrafted snow boots. Each pair is made using high-quality hair-on-hide leather—an eco-friendly by-product material that is naturally patterned, ensuring that no two pairs are identical. These boots are designed to be water-resistant, slip-resistant, and provide exceptional warmth, addressing the practical challenges of harsh winter conditions while maintaining a luxurious aesthetic.

Complementary Accessories:
In addition to footwear, MOGSki has expanded its product line to include winter accessories such as earrings, brooches, necklaces, and even wall art. These pieces echo the brand’s dedication to sustainable, artisanal design and offer customers a way to express their individuality through every detail.
