The job

What an outdoor brand's site actually has to do

People buying gear want to see it used, know it fits what they do, and trust that it ships. If the site can't answer that, they buy somewhere else or not at all.

01 · SHOW IT

Show the product in use.

Real photos and video, on the water and in the field.

02 · ANSWER IT

Answer every question before checkout.

Specs, sizes, options, shipping and returns.

03 · SELL IT

Make buying easy.

Fast collections, a clean cart, and checkout that works on a phone.

Product pages

Product pages that sell

Every product page answers what it's for, what it's made of, the options, and what happens after you buy. Most of your buyers are reading it on a phone.

Configurators

Configurators and guided paths

Made-to-order gear, sets and multi-packs sell better when the buyer builds the order on the page and sees the price as they pick. Big catalogs need a guided path in.

Single product

One product, one story

If you're launching a single product, the product page is the whole site. Epic Fishing sells a captain-designed kids' fishing backpack, so the page tells that story and keeps the path from browse to order short.

Real footage

Real footage of the product doing its job

Video of your gear in use sells better than any copy. We build it into the homepage and product pages and keep it fast on a phone. KillerDock's gallery shows stations and furniture on real docks.

Platform

We build outdoor stores on Shopify

Shopify fits outdoor brands selling online: solid checkout, apps for shipping and tax, and product pages you can run without calling a developer for every change. Flood Tide is a Shopify Partner.

Savage Coffees is our newest Shopify build: a custom theme with the farm on video before the bag.

Migration

Moving an outdoor brand to Shopify

A migration isn't a theme swap. KillerDock moved from WordPress, Elementor and WooCommerce. Here's what came over:

  1. 01Products, variants and images
  2. 02Customers where the platform allows
  3. 03Redirects from every important old URL so search traffic lands on the new pages
  4. 04Sales tax, shipping rules and checkout paths that used to live in email or add-on plugins

Process

How a build works

01 · DISCOVERY

We learn your products and your customers.

What sells, who buys, and what platform fits.

02 · DESIGN

Homepage first, then everything.

You see the homepage at full fidelity before anything else gets built.

03 · BUILD & LAUNCH

Build, QA, launch.

Production build, product migration, redirects from your old URLs, analytics, and a clean launch.

Pricing

Starting at $4,000.

The price depends on how many products and pages you need, migration, and how much content we create with you.

Timeline: most builds take about 4 to 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. That is typical, not a hard rule. If you have a product launch or a show coming, tell us the date and we will plan backward from it.

Questions, answered

FAQ

How much does an outdoor brand ecommerce website cost?

Starting at $4,000. Most focused builds land around that. Price depends on products and pages, migration, configurators, and content we create with you.

How long does it take?

Most builds take about 4 to 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. That is typical, not a hard rule. The biggest variable is how quickly photos, product details and decisions come back from your side.

Is Shopify a good fit for an outdoor brand?

Yes for brands selling gear online. Product pages, collections, configurators and checkout all live in one store. If Shopify is not the right call, we will say so and point you to Astro or Webflow for a marketing site.

Can you move our store to Shopify from WooCommerce or another platform?

Yes. We migrate products, customers where possible, and set up redirects so old URLs land on the new pages and you keep your search traffic. KillerDock moved from WordPress, Elementor and WooCommerce to Shopify.

Can Shopify handle a big fishing or gear catalog?

Yes. We build collections by species, activity or gear type so buyers can browse the way they think, then land on product pages that answer questions before checkout.

Can Shopify handle configurable or made-to-order products?

Yes. We build product pages where sizes, add-ons and options price as the buyer picks them. KillerDock stations and furniture use that pattern.

Is Shopify good for a single-product launch?

Yes. A single-product store puts the story, features and buy button on one focused path. Epic Fishing is a captain-designed kids' fishing backpack sold that way.

What makes a good product page for fishing gear?

Real photos and video of the product in use, clear specs and options, sizing or fit help, shipping and returns, and one obvious add to cart button.

Can we manage products ourselves after launch?

Yes. You manage products, prices and inventory in Shopify. We set it up so that stays simple, and your Care Plan covers the rest of the site.
