Looking for a CRO audit of your eCommerce Website?
Or maybe you're looking for an experienced eCommerce Growth Marketing Consultant to help you with strategy to unlock more revenue and drive conversions? Whatever it may be, I may be the guy who can help. I've been helping eCommerce businesses across all types of industries improve their conversion rates, increase AOV/CLTV, and ultimately revenue bottom lines. I'm available for consulting and advisory work. Keen to know more? Give me a holla! đ
Typically, collections pages donât tend to get the love or focus they deserve from many eCommerce stores. I can say from experience that collection pages are some of the most visited pages that youâll see within your eCommerce analytics.Â
They play a major role in overall user experience and visitor/customer product discovery.Â
Most visitors, especially if theyâre new to your store, and regardless of what original acquisition source they came from, will go around and explore the different product options available that you have. Itâs completely natural for people who have never come across your site before to explore what else you have on offer (I mean, you most likely do this as well).Â
This is where the importance of optimising your user experience and the design of your collection pages comes in.Â
What do the best collection pages look like, and what optimisations can I make?
I think one of the biggest challenges with optimising collections pages is that many store owners and marketers donât have high expectations of these types of pages or even have quality references they can refer (and learn from) to help them see what else they can do to drive sales.Â
So, thatâs why Iâve put these example references together to help inspire you. Each of these collection pages has the perfect mix of creativity, UX, as well as being conversion-focused.Â
Just before diving into these high-level breakdowns, here are some pointers/key factors to keep in mind whilst going through them, which you can use as a small âbenchmarkâ checklist against your existing collection page(s).
Quick tip to keep in mind: Quite a few of these stores experience high volumes of traffic, which means that theyâve most likely done testing of these elements below with their collection pages.Â
Whatâs contained in the header, both in terms of headline, description and design (UI)?Â
Do they have a lot of products on offer? If so, how does their filtering and sorting experience work? Does it work and render on mobile properly?
What attributes can you choose as part of the product filtering/sorting? How does the page respond when you click which attributes you like?
What does the layout look of the collection page look like on both desktop and mobile? Where is the sorted/faceted and filtering navigation, and where is the list of products displayed? Is the search/filtering at the top, left-hand or right-hand side?
Speaking of mobile, how does the structure of the page work? What do you see above the fold? Make a note of what you see in order from top to bottom.
Whatâs included as part of the products on display (I typically call these product âcardsâ)? Do they include the likes of tags, customer reviews, and icons (e.g. special deals, discounts, scarcity tactics - i.e. limited stock)?Â
Can you add products to the cart automatically from the page by hovering or clicking on the product card, or do you have to click through to the actual product page?Â
Do they use other CRO tactics or leverage social proof, such as UGC content, product videos, or testimonials?
Again, I want to stress that when going through these examples, the goal isnât to adopt all key characteristics just because these other sites have included them. It comes down to your overall online store design and what you believe could be some elements worth testing.Â
The way I would approach this is by saving these references and creating your own âchecklistâ of things you can implement over time and test performance.Â
Either way, there are plenty of ideas and tests you can run.Â
Okay, sweet as, itâs now time to get stuck into these collection page examples, which I hope youâll enjoy going through (and taking plenty of notes).Â
1. Oak & Eden
Oak & Eden is a whiskey label that is famed for its traditional distillation using American oak barrels. They have won several awards and gained recognition in the industry, with wins from the San Francisco Spirit Competition and Sip Awards under their belt. Their prices start at $49.99, making them quite affordable for something of great quality.
Hereâs how they sell their products through their âshop allâ collection page:
A menu featuring their different product lines, so customers can easily go to their desired series.
An introduction to each product line as you scroll down, with an image of a man holding a whiskey bottle from the respective series in the middle of the page.Â
When you select a product, a clock-like graphic appears on its image in the background, making it more interactive and getting people to stop in their tracks (good for focus).
2. Tinto Amorio
Tinto Amorio produces wine spritzes that are perfect as light drinks for summer days. The Tinto itself is a known alcoholic drink similar to sangria, except lighter and more refreshing. They are available in different flavours, all inspired by Spain.
Hereâs the layout of their âspritzâ collection:
An email subscription pop-up that offers a 10% promo appears.Â
At the top of the page on the left-hand side, you instantly see the headline, as well as the nutrition facts and selling points of the product.
A one-column view of all their products with matching introductions. This is followed by a teaser for a new product, making customers more interested.
3. Package Free
Package Free, as one would suppose from the name, is a sustainable shop that sells eco-friendly, plastic-free products. They source mostly zero-waste lifestyle items meant to be used in the day-to-day.Â
Here are their featured products:
A title header with a number indicating how many items are under that category.
A product filter with key attributes for visitors to sort through products faster. I like the fact that they even has âvaluesâ as an option, staying true to their purpose and keeping in mind environmentally-conscious people.Â
Also, on the right-hand side, you can âsortâ by featured, alphabetical order, and lowest-highest price (and vice versa).Â
Rows of products that have a rotating earth icon on the upper right of the featured images. Those with discounts/limited-time offers have a corresponding sticker so that users can see them quickly.
4. Blueland
Did you know that 90% of the food and water you consume have micro plastics in them? Blueland was founded to solve this problem, as they create sustainable, plastic-free home solutions like hand soap and laundry detergents.
Definitely take a look at these guys, they nail their collections page, in my opinion.Â
This is their collection page for starter kits:
Their starter kits are on the very top of the page in the nav, making it one of the first things customers see and would likely gravitate towards.
Product and category filters are on the left side of the page, with their products on the right.
I absolutely love the imagery, as well as the tags used for scarcity and urgency (smart CRO tactics) - i.e. âholiday exclusiveâ, âbest sellerâ, âsave 20%â, etc.Â
A separate section for refills after scrolling down, with an indication of how many items are in the collection.
As you hover over the card, you then see âquick addâ - definitely a great UX and makes it so easy for people on desktop and mobile to add to the cart.Â
5. Forest Gum
You may think that Forest Gum is named after the movie, but itâs actually a reference to how the company makes plant-based, plastic-free chewing gum (genius naming, if you ask me). The company is based in Germany, and its website is entirely in its local language.Â
They have an impressive UI overall, with a minimal collections page structure.
A banner featuring their product selling points.
The product details show under each item as you hover over them, making the customer feel like the product is truly being highlighted.
They used bright yet evenly distributed colours throughout the page. Big fan of their branding.Â
6. Rooted
Rooted is a company that doesnât just sell plant-based products; they sell actual plants. They currently have three stores in New York, with the aim of making nature more accessible in the concrete jungle.Â
Letâs take a look at their âplantsâ collection:
They have filters that can meet the requirements of numerous visitor persona types, including the likes of whether they have pets at home or just want something easy to take care of.
Clear pics and product info of the plants, including their scientific names.
Stickers on the featured images show bestsellers and rare plants. These make them more appealing to customers. Plus, good to see some products have various colours shown for people to choose from.
Also, great UX when you hover over the photographs to add products to the cart.Â
7. Krave Beauty
Krave Beauty is a skincare company founded by YouTuber Liah Yoo. After trying so many products on her skin, she realised that she only really needed a few items to maintain her great complexion, which is what she set out to create with her company. Selling only six products for different skincare steps, Krave Beauty promises high quality, sustainability, and affordability.
This is their âshop allâ skincare line:
A header image featuring all their products.
Different sections feature different product series so that users will know what the essentials are and what is meant to serve as add-ons.
Stickers that indicate the productâs purpose, with a highlight on improved formulas or new products.
8. Robin Golf
As one would expect from the name, Robin Golf sells golf items. They are best known for their premium golf clubs, designed to give players a more comfortable grip without sacrificing their game. Itâs actually such a beautiful website in terms of elegant design and UX - love what theyâve built.
They have several collections, but letâs take a look at their main collections page, which then directs visitors to specific collections:
A happy image of young golfers, showing that it caters to an audience different from the usually perceived market, with some witty copy (âget into the swing of thingsâ - love it).
Different sections are dedicated to different categories, with a clear outline of who the products are for.
A shipping and returns banner at the bottom of the collection page which doesnât go away as you scroll (although you have the option to close it).
Hereâs an example of their âmenâs equipmentâ page.Â
9. Joi
Joi is founded on the principle that people have the right to determine what is best for their bodies with what they consume. So, they founded a plant-milk company with organic products, with no allergens, artificial additives or preservatives.
This is how they present their collections page, with âbest sellersâ at the top, and as you scroll, you see the others (yes, all on the one page):
A header menu that allows customers to filter according to category.
Product descriptions that include how many batches and quarts each item is able to make, with the immediate option for a subscription.
A section outlining their selling points through the use of pink and blue cartoonish icons.
As you keep scrolling, you then see the other collection categories, which are then broken up with a mix of USP sections (such as âwhy subscribeâ), as well as other sections to break it up.Â
Also, just a big fan of how theyâve gone about their product cards - everything from the number of reviews, product bios, and top-notch imagery, as well as the two options of one-off purchases or subscriptions. Definitely amazing work here by the team at Joi.Â
10. Thousand Fell
Thousand Fell is a sneakers label that uses sustainably sourced materials, with a focus on the circular economy. This means that their products are made to last and can be recycled, with the crafting being done by a family-owned factory in Brazil. They are best known for their white sneakers, available in different designs.
This is what their menâs collection page looks like:
Copy that shows their best-selling white shoes in use, with an assertion that their products are the most comfortable, long-lasting sneakers you will ever own, which makes for a strong selling point.
Clear highlights of what makes their products special, with matching images and icons.
On the top left hand-side, you will see the filters and categories, making it easier for visitors to quickly filter what theyâre looking for. I also like the toggle of whatâs âin stockâ.Â
A plug for their Instagram profile is at the bottom of the page, with a branded hashtag (good UGC play). Itâs good to include this as visitors can go ahead and look through tagged pics.
11. Grape Juice
Grape Juice is a wine shop that leans into natural wine, which basically means that they follow the wine-making process as is in all their products. They are primarily known for their wine sets, which are curated every month by their team and are categorised into orange, rosette, Piquette, white, and red.
This is the page for their current white wine collection:
An image of white wines is beautifully arranged on the right side of the page, accompanied by a very personable description of the set.
A plug of their different wine selections, with corresponding redirect links.
A newsletter form that takes up the entire page, making it quite noticeable for those scrolling through.
12. Sunnies Face
Sunnies Face is a beauty store founded in the Philippines, and it has gone on to make waves on the international scene. Their goal is to create affordable, yet high-quality and aesthetically pleasing makeup.
This is how theyâve structured their âshop allâ collections page:
A large header outlining a special offer store-wide. They would be rotating offers in this banner section depending on the core campaign at the time.Â
Good horizontal structure of the product cards, with a filter on the to-right-hand side. Smart work as well by including the âbest beauty awardâ sticker of their Fluffmate lipstick. Always a good idea to prioritise the first product with awards/best-selling stickers to reinforce trust and confidence with new browsers.
Also when you hover on the images, you can see different shade colours. Really nice touch for people to see what shade may work best for them.
13. Doublesoul
Doublesoul claims to make the best and most comfortable socks anyone could ever wear, using recycled and organic cotton and earth-safe dyes.
They have quite an assortment, but this is how they prop up their bestsellers:
A 20% pop-up discount for email and SMS subscriptions when you go onto this page.
Good 50/50 layout, with an image that shows off the socks, and strong copy focused on why Doublesoulâs socks are made for everyone.
A creative image that shows off the productâs selling points, which I love.Â
Good layout of their products, although I feel theyâre lacking filters for people to quickly find an attribute they prefer, whether it be colours, length, price or pack size. This is definitely something they should consider, since they have 2 pages with a large amount of SKUs.
14. Saint James
Saint James is a beverage company best known for its iced tea, which probably shouldnât be a surprise given that it was founded by John Ferolito, the founder of AriZona (amazing drinks). Saint James was then designed to be an organic and sustainable sister of the brand, with its healthy and sustainable options.
This is their primary layout:
A one-sentence description of their productâs selling points, with an artistic capture of a lemon as the backdrop.

A small number of products that are truly curated for summer, letting the customer know that the items in the collection were thoughtfully considered.
You can easily âsort byâ products instantaneously.Â

This is their âallâ collections page:
An image with their products on display.

A highlight of their trio offers, as they appear as the first items on the page. The sticker showing the value items alongside their scent sources are an added visual touch.
17. Italic
Italic is a luxury gifts company that aims to deliver the highest quality at affordable prices. They do this by going direct to the manufacturers of famous brands, getting rid of retail markups, and rigorously testing each item to ensure that they live up to standards. Their tagline? Luxury without labels, and itâs very clear in their every collection.
Letâs take a look at their âbest sellersâ collection design:
As we can see above, we see a big image. Still viewable above the fold, you can then see a tagline with âthe best of the bestâ, with then the number of items in the collection.Â
A show of the different designs under that collection, giving customers a variety of items with the same quality.
A âquick viewâ button when you hover over the image, which then brings up a modal of of the product. Super nice UX and saves cluttering the existing page when exploring products.Â

A personable description and introduction to their collection and products.
A products filter on the left side of the screen, with then more detailed filters based on the current page youâre on (e.g. colour, format, size).
Love how you can easily click the various âcollectionsâ buttons to see more specific colleections.Â
19. Honeylove
Honeylove is a garment's label that desires to empower females of all shapes and sizes with designs that are made for comfort and style. They started out with just shape wear but have since branched out to underwear and clothing.

A header menu that contains all possible category filters, with accompanying images.
When you hover over an item, its description and more featured images will appear on the left side of the screen.
Good layout with a model in action on the left-hand side, which shows off the comfort of that particular product focus, and then the range of items available (with their variants) on the right-hand side.Â
As you scroll down, the model grid images on the left-hand side change depending on the product focus.Â
20. Hilma
After finding out that most of the natural remedies in the market werenât up to scientific standards, founders Lily, Nina, and Hilary spent two years creating an alternative with a team of world-class scientists. The result? Hilma, which is a natural supplements brand that ensures its offerings are backed by science and up to clean label standards.
This is how they promote their different offerings.
A straightforward introductory header that positions the brand and what they do.
A subtle categories filter alongside the header, which allows customers to choose from a range of collections.

A sweater line that is made for men, yet the feature pics also show women wearing the products.Â
A promotion of their latest collaboration with Saint James.
Underneath the collab section, you get a reminder about the USPs. Then at the bottom, you have a final CTA for with a special promo in case anyone decides to leave the site.
22. Raaka

This is all their chocolates on a single collection page - letâs see their layout:
Straightforward copy on the products and their health selling points.
A show of their variety of products, all reasonably priced too.

Letâs check it out:
On-brand copy saying that everyone wants their best sellers, because whatâs not to love?
A feature of their quirky socks, with some product photos being scaled bigger than the others. I quite like this tactic as it makes you stop scrolling - itâs a good pattern interrupt. Itâs a good way to help browsers focus on the right areas.Â
Really easy to use the various filters available.Â
Added copy promoting their best sellers in the middle of the page, which can be seen as customers scroll down. Again, another little âpattern interruptâ tactic.Â
26. Folklore Las Ninas
Folklore Las Ninas is most known for their childrenâs clothing and accessories, drawing inspiration from the foundersâ Latin American roots. They tap into designers and artisans around Latin America, and feature their designs and handiwork.
They also have home decor products made in collaboration with these artists, as seen on this page:
At the top, we see an image of some of the pillows theyâre selling, with copy that props up the cultural heritage of their items. Although it may have been better if the words âGuatemala textilesâ was a bit more highlighted, given that this is a nice selling point.
A filter for pillow sizes, shown on the left side of the page, as well as further sorting available.
As you scroll down, you see a static CTA for âGet 15% offâ - you then get an offer/email subscription modal that pops up.

Hereâs what the skincare collections page is designed:
Minimal header copy and description that explains Kimâs vision for the products and brand.
Hovering over the features of the individual products show swatches of the product texture.
An indication of the star rating of each product, which helps with social proof and building trust with new visitors.Â
Really food filtering and sorting options.Â

Core and Rind started out as a farmerâs market offering, with the founders crafting plant-based cheese sauces that contain no dairy. They also contain no additives or chemicals, and each one is made with real food and ingredients.

Hovering over each product shows that sauce is in use.
A carousel of their Instagram posts at the bottom of the page.
41. Dream Pops
Dream Pops started out as a company that makes the worldâs 100% plant-based ice cream. They have since branched out to other snacks, but they retain the same mission and formulation: healthier classic desserts that are still just as yummy.
Hereâs a look at their collection page:
A shop-by-product type filter, wherein visitors can just choose a product tab to shift categories (âcrunchâ, âdripâ, etc).
Hovering over individual product selections shows what they look like when bitten into, making their graphics even more appealing to the consumer.

What are some of the key attributes that make a good collection page design?
When it comes to great collection pages (which Iâve highlighted over 40 amazing references for you to look into), they possess these main attributes as a core baseline. First, a great title and image at the top, which is clear and eye-catchy. Second, they have a good menu filtering UX system, using either faceted or sorted product navigation. This is particularly important if they have a lot of products under a specific collection list. Third, the products are clearly labelled and are suitable for the category. Finally, and arguably the most important, itâs optimised for mobile experiences.
Are there creative campaign strategies for collection pages that can help with driving sales?
There are quite a few creative strategies that you can implement, whether youâre creating automated collection pages or creating a manual collection (which is quite easy to do if youâre using Shopify or BigCommerce), to help with converting more visitors. The first strategy is around the types of collection pages you create. For example, you may have your standard collection pages, such as best sellers and special offer items, but there are many other ideas you can adopt. Other ideas include having a collections page for bundles, campaign-specific such as Christmas or Black Friday deals, having a 48-hour one-time flash sale for popular products, and many others. It does depend on your business, but there are certainly plenty of ideas you can test out.
What are your favourite Shopify collection page examples that an online store can learn from?
Iâve highlighted throughout this guide some of the best collection pages Iâve come across, but there are some standouts that I believe are absolutely worth checking out if you run an eCommerce business. Those standouts are Krave Beauty, Tinto Amorio, Blueland, Wall or Art, and Ugmonk. All possess many top strategies around UX, UI and CRO.
Do you have any specific tactics for how products are laid out, or should be highlighted, on a collection page to improve conversion rates?
Itâs one thing to create specialized collections for products that you want to highlight to visitors on your site, but itâs another thing for visitors to take action and add products to the cart, and ultimately checkout. A tactic that can really increase CTRs of products is adding product tags, for example, âbestsellerâ or âSave X% offâ. Take a look at Bluelandâs collection page, as they adopt this tactic really well. Another tactic is to highlight reviews of products and make sure the top-rated products get preference at the top of the page. Iâve found this to work really well, especially on mobile. Towards the bottom, consider including ârelated productsâ, or even ârelated collectionsâ. This is a good UX option to have to provide visitors with more options in case they havenât found exactly what theyâre looking for. There are naturally other specific tactics you could try, but these three, in particular, Iâve found can really help with conversion rates with clients Iâve worked with.
How easy is it to create automated collection pages?
If you use Shopify, the good news is that theyâre super easy to create, and you can even create up to 5,000 of them. You can literally spin out multiple Shopify collection pages, whether small or specialized collections, in minutes. The best thing about the Shopify UX, whether youâre experienced with the CMS or not, is that it takes just a few minutes to set the conditions of the collection pages you want to create. For example, if you want to create a new collection that highlights âlow-priced itemsâ, then all you need to do is set the conditions to show on that particular page item less than the specified price.
