Hello,
I’m encountering some issues while setting up my Shopify store for Scottish Kilt Co , an online retailer specializing in kilts. Specifically, I’m having trouble with product variations, shipping settings, and ensuring smooth checkout experiences for customers.
Has anyone faced similar challenges when configuring their Shopify store, especially for niche e-commerce sites like Scottish Kilt Co.? Any guidance or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Looking forward to your suggestions!

HI @Finlythomes
If your business is B2B retailer you need Shopify plus, But If your budget is not enough to purchase you can use B2b apps feature for retail.

Hi @Finlythomes ,
Yes, setting up a niche Shopify store like Scottish Kilt Co. can come with challenges, especially with product variations, shipping, and checkout. For variations, apps like Variant Option Product Options or King Product Options can help if Shopify’s default options are limiting. For shipping, ensure your shipping zones and rates are properly configured under Settings > Shipping and Delivery, and consider a shipping app for more flexibility. For checkout, enable guest checkout, test different payment methods, and streamline the process with a one-page checkout app if needed.
Thanks for the tips! Running a niche store like Scottish Kilt Co., I’ve faced similar issues. We use King Product Options for custom kilt variations, and a shipping app helped us manage complex rates. Enabling guest checkout and using a one-page checkout app also boosted conversions. Appreciate the insights!
Your welcome @Finlythomes

To manage product variants, remember Shopify supports up to three option types per product—if you need more flexibility beyond the 100-variant limit tied to those options, apps like Bold Product Options or Infinite Options can help introduce extra custom fields without bloating your variant count. For shipping, group all kilts under a single shipping profile to apply uniform weight- or price-based rates—create additional profiles only for products requiring special rates, and always run test checkouts to ensure accuracy. On the checkout side, enabling dynamic checkout buttons such as Shop Pay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay gives customers a one-click experience straight from product pages, while adding a cart notes field captures bespoke pleating or tartan preferences. These adjustments should streamline setup for niche sites like Scottish Kilt Co. House of Argyll – The Ultimate Glasgow Kilts
