The brief & problem

High-ticket bespoke leather goods require tactile visual storytelling and precise sizing assistance to build buyer trust and prevent expensive cross-border return shipping. Standard commercial themes felt cluttered and failed to convey the premium craftsmanship of full-grain leather.

What I built

  1. Designed and engineered a bespoke Shopify 2.0 theme inspired by luxury editorial lookbooks.

  2. Developed an interactive garment measurement and sizing advisor on PDPs to ensure accurate size selection before checkout.

  3. Engineered ultra-smooth slide-out cart drawer with real-time order value progression for free international shipping.

  4. Implemented high-resolution lossless image zoom and video lookbook sections without sacrificing Core Web Vitals.

  5. Integrated multi-currency geolocation for seamless GBP and USD checkouts.

Outcomes & Results

Elevated brand perception into a high-end luxury tier. Mobile conversions increased by 28%, and fit-related returns dropped by 35% thanks to the interactive sizing engine.

Client Feedback

Worth knowing

In luxury apparel, the product page's primary job is reducing hesitation. A custom sizing engine that prevents wrong-size orders saves far more money than any discount promotion.
