2. Fiftythree

Beautiful presentation of the product with subtle animations. Simple, calm color scheme and easy smooth scrolling navigation. Simple icons, serving as infographics add interest and a touch of class.

3. Tattly

Store for temporary tattoos with simple design, allowing you to focus on the rich content and selective categories. A nice element of their design is “Things We Love” picks, with quick buttons for shopping. Following the in-store trends to try and save the customers as much time as possible.

4. Mama&Little

The target customers of this store are young women with small children (As in the name -yeah!). This theme effectively runs through the entire shopify store design – pastel color scheme, lots of white space, clear product photos instagram feed with happy mothers plus attractive naming convention for their product categories. The arrow navigation makes it easy to look through the products without the hassle of opening new pages, going back and forth.

5. Blukicks

Fresh, bright ecommerce site for shoes, with effective, simple logo. Again, great structure – the user is lead from the “Shop Now” new collection photo slide to returns policy, about us (building the customer’s trust) and finishes off with testimonials, reviews and instagram feed. You are easily convinced to be part of this brand and community. Heavy focus on the brand and not on categories – which are cleverly “hidden” in their side burger navigation.

6. Bremont

Accessories for the modern adventurer (who needs cufflinks and a leather journal) Knowing your audience will certainly positively influence your design decisions. Bremont knows the drill – from the straight-forward navigation, simple on-hover animations of product photos to their choice of logo, slogan and color scheme. It’s no surprise they picked red accent color to emphasize the energy, style and nature of the adventurer. The image is the winner here.

7. Norwegian Rain

We love the minimalistic, nordic feel to this Shopify store design. Big, eye-catching photos of their products in action and subtle, stylish animations added to their menus. You can even choose your currency. With a real store that is this cool consistency between online presence and on street presence accentuates brand awareness.

10. Master&Dynamic

Geeky design – all the tech info and specifications, reviews, support and minimalist photos are the right ingredients for the success of this New York City-based premium audio brand. They believe in mastery. We believe they mastered the design of their Shopify store as well – see for yourselves!

11. Caravan

If the previous brand believes in mastery of technology and audio, so Caravan believes in good coffee and accessories. They have divided their menu into two sections – shop and explore, allowing easy orientation when browsing. The landing page is also divided into sections with call to action buttons and engaging photos.

12. Rebel8

Fashion Shopify store, selling to men and women. New collections and products prioritized, the rest remain deeper in their navigation and galleries.

13. Leif

The use of product filters, light colors and clear pictures on white backgrounds is the way Leif handle the complexity of their service.You can also save to Pinterest with quick button.

14. Belief

Something slightly different here– No focus on shopping and prices, but the shops, team, people wearing their clothes and accessories. Unified filters, colors and typography. Done with the help of whole page galleries, giving you an instant feel of what the brand stands for and what it has to offer. Long story short – excellent Shopify store design, aiming to build brand love.

Elegance of store design shows through their specific categories, features and naming such as “Lookbook”, “Gift Cards” and “Shopping Bag”.

16. Water Aid

 

A Charity which likes to attract community -minded people, and reward their good deeds with a fresh, cheerful design. The guys here have managed to make very specific products more appealing and fun. Fun illustrations, big letters, cartoon look and price transparency are the main elements of the design. If you are interested in such fresh, fun designs, you might find GraphicMama’s cartoons a great choice for your site.

Last but not least, they haven’t forgotten to include customer reviews on their site and how the money donated is spent. An important detail for any business/organization such as Water Aid. Trust through transparency!

17. HGWalter

Extensive filtering system, promotions and plenty of appetizing photos are key elements to the design of this butchery Shopify store. The choice of logo, typography, colors and accents suggests premium quality products. Great representative of culinary themed ecommerce site.

18. Little Deer

Feminine Shopify store for interior accessories. Some of the highlights of the website are photos of the products – details or using them in diverse ways; the fine typography, handwritten logo and the well-thought out categories. It was pleasure to browse through the site at speed.

19. Tessemae’s

Talking about appetizing photos, as in the butchery above, we can’t fail to mention Tessemae – helping you to improve your diet with healthy meal selections and improve your hectic lifestyle.

The logo is modern, the main typography – simple and bold, but doesn’t distract from the delicious meals they offer.

When you select a product and add it to your cart, you are offered the chance to continue shopping or go to your order – very nice functionality, which is more and more common on ecommerce sites.

22. RYDER

Ryder has some very nice solutions for their Shopify store. First, they show all their products – once on a plain white background, and once on a model. Then, they try to engage their audience with lookbooks, press and stories. Last but not least, there is quick Pin It button to each on of the photos – which helps spread the word of their brand through social media. The website’s galleries resemble Instagram’s feed itself, which makes the fashion customers even more comfortable and accustomed to the interface.

23. Ksubi

Ksubi is an edgy fashion Shopify store and you can immediately see this in their landing page’s videos and handwritten, crooked logo. Their design solutions are simple, uncompleted and as a nice touch they show the products with your home country’s currency.

What does a toy shop need to stand out from the crowd and be memorably attractive? Storytelling, personality, character and cartoons.

The review section is a powerful tool to win new customers through positive feedback.

Very light, intuitive site, with great customer support system, which almost makes you feel as if you have an expert sitting next to you and helping you with your project. Worth checking the website out!

40. Cereal

This shopify store answers the question of how to impress users with online elegant presence of a magazine. They offer free content to their audience, to get a taste of their product, but you can also subscribe for their issues and buy the full product. You can have a look at the table of contents of the magazine, some photos and shipping info – all nice details.

41. Phonebibi

Shopify store selling… woolen shoes. We love everything about the concept and the visual representation of it – hand drawn illustrations, multiple product photos, color choices, easy checkout. We strongly recommend having a look at this design – it is impressive.

43. Colour Pop

Very girly, colorful and peachy design. The bottom navigation of the most important categories shows an understanding of the audience and their needs. What is winning in this design is the section “Get the Look” with tutorials, photos and a product list of how to achieve a certain make-up look.

44. Serpent Urban Clothing

Because of the youthful spirit of the brand, there are many fun videos on their landing Shopify store page. It could be a little overwhelming with bright colors, plenty of products and discount banners, but we think the design still manages to reflect the bubbliness and energy of the urban “kids”.

45. Gadgetsflow

Our last pick is a Shopify store selling a wide range of gadgets. What we like about the design is the nice structure and grid layout, the simple product previews and the extensive product information – which is often an important factor for purchase.
