(01) Our take

Shopify remains the right answer for most direct-to-consumer commerce. The platform's reliability, the app ecosystem, and the Hydrogen + Oxygen stack for headless storefronts give us a range of options from "theme customisation" to "fully bespoke headless build" with the same underlying commerce infrastructure.

We do the bespoke Hydrogen work more often than simple theme customisation. For brands where the storefront is the brand experience — editorial-feeling DTC, subscription commerce, complex product configurators — Shopify's headless path gives us the freedom we need without giving up the infrastructure.

(02) What we build with it

Typical work

  • Headless Shopify storefronts with Hydrogen
  • Custom theme development for mid-market DTC brands
  • Subscription commerce with custom engines
  • Shopify app development for specific client workflows

(03) How we engage

Engagement shape

Shopify engagements range from 6 weeks (theme customisation) to 20+ weeks (full headless rebuild with custom subscription engine).
