Which Theme should I select for my Bedding and Home Decor store

I have been searching for the right theme for my Beddings (flatsheet , fitted sheet, Comforters , King size, Queen size bedsheets) store.

I am looking for a paid them , there should be ~300 products, including all variations.

I have a bunch of Requirements , which I will put in a list.

I have briefly analyzed certain themes , such as -Hyper , Next , Normcore, Habitat etc… by going-through their -View Demo websites.

Honestly , I am quite confused. Can someone please guide me on the best and quick way to find the most relevent theme ?

You basically listed simple features that come standard with all premium themes nowadays. Differences in themes are much more specific, such as ability to change size of images, rounded borders, desktop and mobile settings, margins and padding, certain sections and pages like custom timeline or theme settings like right-click lock, specific fonts and ability to change font size, logo positioning, etc.

Also, you would not be able to understand whether theme is good for you without trying it in your shop.

Install a trial theme, play with the settings and see whether you’re comfortable with it and whether you can implement what you need.

Repeat with another, then couple of others and only then you can make a decision.
No one else can do that for you.

Yes , you are right … but there are so many themes … That I wanted to save sometime for myself. Any theme , you would recommend to start with.

hmm.. any theme you would personally recommend . A theme that has most advanced features as well.

I think you should play around with some trials and get to know how to customize before taking the plunge of investment. They are try before you buy, so it’s harmless. Do some comparisons between the top premium (prestige, pipeline, impulse) and the top free (dawn, horizon)

Have a look at demos, make short-list and try those selected in your store.
That’s what I recommend to my clients.

One point though – recently Shopify introduced a new block-based approach to theme configuration with publication of Horizon family of themes.

This gives merchants much more flexibility in configuring their theme without actually editing theme code.

If some paid themes already adopted this approach, I’d recommend looking at those.

One more question.
Do the ‘Demo Videos’ showcase complete capabilities of the theme ? Or just a fraction of the capabilities ?
