Brigade Overland
Problem
A Canadian overland retailer had outgrown a 2021 WooCommerce store. Product range, accounts and order history had to move. The new store had to look like field kit, not a generic theme, and still be something the business could run.
What I did
- Built the bespoke Shopify theme with the agency team: catalogues, brand landing blocks, cart and account paths, and the front-end that has to work on a phone at a trailhead as well as at a desk.
- Helped move the catalogue, customer accounts and past orders off WooCommerce so the switch was a launch, not a rebuild of the business.
- Contract development on the agency team. The live footer still credits the Shopify theme to the agency. That is the delivery model: agency front, developer in the build.
Result
Live at brigadeoverland.com. Proof for Shopify roles that need a custom theme and a real platform move, not a Dawn restyle.
