More flexible than flexible.

Described by one of our merchants as “bloody amazing,” Ira is perfect for high volume retailers who favour a clean and minimal aesthetic. Iteratively designed and developed since 2015, it’s the perfect foundation for your next project.

Ira was first released in 2016 as a full-width photography-forward storytelling theme. It was completely overhauled in early 2020. Ira is all about big beautiful grids of editorial photography. Its modern grid-based design is perfect for retailers with medium to large product catalogues. Its design system is characterized by modular interlocking sections that give just about every page a sense of visual consistency. As template designers, one of our biggest challenges is making sure that our themes look great even after they’ve been heavily customized by our customers. Ira rises succesfully to this challenge. Since 2016, the theme has garnered 87 reviews, 95% of which are positive.

All theme sales are final and Shopify does not offer refunds. This is because once the theme is purchased, you will own the code in its entirety.
