Choose themes for Shopify with a checklist
- Catalog shape — few SKUs with big imagery vs dense catalogs
- Must-have sections — FAQ, size guides, bundles, blogs
- App compatibility — reviews, subscriptions, upsells
- Performance budget — image-heavy demos often hide real costs
- Editor comfort — can your team edit without a developer?
Trial workflow
Duplicate your live theme → install candidate as unpublished → add real products → test mobile cart → only then publish.
