Great theme! Flexible and highly customizable. Pixel Union does a great job keeping the theme updated with all the latest features and trends, so your store stays current
Amazing theme and perfect for our store. The support at Pixel Union is great - fast response times, knowledgeable and helpful. We are so glad we found this theme!
I am really happy with the theme, it's a before and after for our store and it was really easy to customize and have helped a lot with conversion. The team is really willing to help and made everything much more easier.
Editing: I was bothered by this theme because I purchased it 2021 and a lot of updates happened in 2022 making my theme just not work right. I contacted support but they always said to hire someone to check my code. All I needed to do was update the theme though. I actually do love this theme, just the support is not that wonderful in my experience although they respond.
