Shopify is very different from WordPress in many ways.
One, it comes for a decent monthly pocket pinch.
Secondly, unlike WordPress or Woocommerce, which are essentially open source projects, Shopify is a firm – and it very very rarely offers any freebies whatsoever.
It has a total of only 8 themes available for installation in its designated store; and most of them are not really much good. Also, add to this the fact that most premium theme on the Shopify store cost ~100$+, and you would understand how important and difficult finding a good Shopify free theme is.
So, we at Nascent Rocket have put together a list of the same. Unlike our post on free themes for Woocommerce, where we took into account many parameters like
- design – product and category layouts available
- woocommerce integration and optimisation
- product display options and short-code feasibility
- availability of one-click demo imports
- ease and affordability of upgrade if required,
here, we would be looking at only a few things like functions and features, styles available, product repositories supported, and user feedback – the latter being the most important parameter; because, as Shopify is coded in Liquid, it is not easy to shake things up very easily if your theme doesn’t perform well after a few days or weeks.
Also, we would not be adding any semi-decent themes to the list, so, it will be a short one with only 3 names. But the names on it, are good.
