By default Shopify already have some icon for social media

Assuming you want to show those icon on footer

You need to add the social URL under

Online Store --> Themes --> Customize --> Theme Settings  (at the very bottom) --> Social Media --> add link to facebook, insta, twitter ... then Save

After that it will show icons on footer

Hi 

Integrating social media with your Shopify Store is a smart way to increase the reach of traffic to your store. Shopify social network tabs are beneficial to promote your business which can turn into customers and sales so you must have at least some social accounts.

There are two ways to add social media icons to your site, the easy and the more complicated way.

Let's start with the easy way first.
1. Easy Method - All you have to do is go to the Social Media section of the App Store and select the theme in which the Social Media Icon is available, there are many themes in the Theme Store that already include Social Media Icons (buttons). You can check if it has buttons by going to the Customize theme page and viewing the header, sidebar, homepage, or footer menus.

2. Now for a more advanced way, just follow the steps below:

  • Log in to your Shopify admin
  • Go to the online store and then click on Theme
  • Open asset folder
  • If you scroll down you will see a link Add a new asset Click on this link
  • From the list of file, icon Select the icon file you want to upload and click on Upload asset
  • The icon button will now be available and will work after adding the code to it (open the "theme.liquid" file to add the code)
  • The button will be shown in your theme as per the code you pasted in the line
  • Click save
  • That's all.

If you're interested there are also a few apps in the Shopify App Store that can help you add social icons as well. You can choose from social media icons, social share buttons, and more.
