The Challenge

Almsthre's website had not been updated in years and no longer reflected the brand’s evolving aesthetic or product quality. The existing experience lacked visual impact, clear product storytelling, and modern UX patterns—leading to missed conversion opportunities and friction in the shopping journey. The team needed a fast, beautiful, and scalable Shopify experience that could better support merchandising, discovery, and growth.

Our Approach

NINE15 partnered with Almsthre to fully redesign and rebuild their Shopify storefront from the ground up. We focused on modern art direction, improved product storytelling, and conversion-optimized UX—while introducing custom functionality to reduce friction and encourage exploration. This included custom apps, enhanced navigation, a refined filtering system, bundling capabilities, and performance optimizations to ensure the new experience was both visually compelling and fast.

The Result

The new Shopify experience is cleaner, faster, and significantly more intuitive. Improved navigation and filtering make it easier for customers to find the right products, while sticky add-to-cart and quick-add functionality streamline purchasing. The redesigned PDPs and collections pages elevate product storytelling, resulting in stronger engagement and improved conversion potential across the site.
