hi all, launching a fashion brand soon - and want to reduce the portrait/landscape issues for good and just capture content in portrait mode (even though i loooove landscape) - are there themes that support portrait video out of the box?
thanks.
Topic summary
Goal: Find a Shopify theme that natively supports portrait-oriented content (especially portrait video) to avoid portrait/landscape issues for a new fashion brand.
Key input: A page builder representative noted most themes won’t handle this perfectly by default; achieving optimal results may require custom coding or using a page builder app.
Preference: The requester wanted a built-in theme solution rather than relying on a page builder.
Outcome/update: They chose the Turbo theme.
- Support: Some template sections allow separate desktop/mobile images; others do not.
- Product page: Works well with vertical/horizontal images after minor CSS adjustments.
- Satisfaction: Overall happy with Turbo’s handling of vertical/horizontal images, though it isn’t perfect out of the box.
Status: Practically resolved for the requester using Turbo plus light CSS. Note: The update confirms image handling; explicit portrait video support was not detailed and may still require testing or customization.
Hello @hotify
This is Amelia at PageFly - Shopify Advanced Page Builder app.
While themes can be used to achieve this, it may not be possible to do so by default and may require coding to function optimally. You can also refer to PageBuilder apps to build such pages more easily.
Hoping my solution helps you solve your problem.
Best regards,

thanks, would prefer a theme with it in-built than a page builder, thanks.
update: ended up going with Turbo - some template sections support both desktop/mobile images while some don’t. Not perfect, but their product page works with them well with a bit of CSSing around. Overall pretty happy with Turbo and it’s support of vertical/horizontal images.
