How to remove white borders from Dawn Theme product images?

Store Design
, , , ,

Topic summary

A user sought help removing white borders appearing around product images on their Dawn theme Shopify store.

Initial troubleshooting:

  • Another user suggested adjusting card settings in Theme Settings (border thickness, opacity, corner radius)
  • This approach did not resolve the issue

Root cause identified:

  • The white borders were embedded directly within the product image files themselves, not caused by theme CSS or styling

Resolution:

  • The helper provided a corrected version of the image with borders removed
  • The original poster confirmed this solved the problem

The issue was resolved by editing the source images rather than modifying theme code or settings.

Hi @Tordoe !

Try changing the Cards settings inside of the Theme Settings. From there you can change a card’s border thickness, opacity and corner radius.

I’ve tried that already and none of the settings got rid of the white border, but thank you anyway.

Ahhh, looks like the white border is coming directly from the image:
