Fresh New Site Focused on Storytelling for the Iconic Everlast Brand

Everlast, a brand synonymous with boxing, and the leading name in the industry since the early 1900s. Building the Everlast website on Shopify involved prioritizing a smart user experience to meet the needs of its diverse customer base. We integrated quick add-to-cart features, allowing users to effortlessly select and purchase products, significantly reducing the time from browsing to checkout. Optimized filtering and search capabilities were key elements, enabling customers to find exactly what they need with minimal effort. The site’s navigation was designed to be intuitive, ensuring users could easily explore Everlast’s extensive product range. We implemented responsive design principles, ensuring seamless performance across various devices, from desktops to mobile phones. Consistent branding was maintained throughout, reinforcing Everlast's iconic identity. Strategic use of white space and bold call-to-action buttons helped guide users toward key actions and information. We also included rich storytelling elements, highlighting Everlast’s heritage and commitment to quality, creating a deeper connection with visitors. The result was a visually stunning and intuitive e-commerce platform that not only increased sales by 23% in 30 days, but also elevated the Everlast brand.

The Everlast Challenge

Everlast, the renowned boxing brand, embarked on a significant journey transitioning its e-commerce platform from Magento to Shopify and migrating operations from AX2012 to Microsoft D365. This endeavor presented several intricate challenges, including seamless data migration, complex system integration, and the imperative of preserving the brand's esteemed legacy throughout the process.

The Arctic Grey Solution

In response to these challenges, Arctic Grey, a trusted Shopify partner, stepped in with their expertise and experience. Leveraging their deep understanding of Shopify's capabilities and their proficiency in system integration, Arctic Grey crafted a tailored e-commerce solution that met Everlast's exact specifications. They meticulously orchestrated the migration of critical data from Magento to Shopify, ensuring no disruption to business operations and preserving data integrity. Furthermore, Arctic Grey assisted with building a seamless integration between Shopify and Microsoft D365, facilitating real-time communication and synchronization between the two systems.

Throughout the collaboration, Arctic Grey maintained open lines of communication with Everlast, providing regular updates and ensuring alignment with project timelines and budgetary constraints. The result of this partnership was a beautiful Shopify website that not only delivered an optimized user experience but also authentically showcased Everlast's storied heritage and brand identity.

A truly diverse range of action

The team: Everlast partnered with Arctic Grey to create a well- rounded user experience tailored for both mobile and desktop user conversion rate optimization with a special emphasis on customer education. Our efforts to combine quick-add features along with trust badges and product education resulted in a 152% increase in conversion rate as soon as 30 days post launch.

Mobile First: Given the substantial mobile subscriber base and extensive social media following associated with Everlast, our primary focus was a mobile-first approach for the website. Ensuring a mobile-friendly site is essential to accommodate user preferences and enhance accessibility, ultimately contributing to a more site visitors and conversions.

Optimized UX: The optimized UX on Everlast.com, featuring intuitive navigation and responsive design, has made shopping a breeze for customers. One highlight is the "quick add to cart" feature, which lets users add items directly from product listings, saving them time and effort. This convenient addition has significantly boosted the site's conversion rate by an impressive 152% in just 30 days. By making the shopping process faster and easier, customers are more likely to complete their purchases. Overall, Everlast.com’s elevated modern design ensures a smooth and enjoyable shopping experience, encouraging more sales and happy customers.

SEO & Site Speed: Smart SEO and optimized site speed have had a significant impact on Everlast.com, enhancing both visibility and user experience. Implementing effective SEO strategies has ensured that Everlast ranks higher in search engine results, making it easier for potential customers to discover the brand. By targeting relevant keywords, optimizing meta tags, and creating high-quality content, Everlast attracts more organic traffic, leading to increased site visits and potential sales. By enhancing their presence in search engines, the traffic increased by 133.2k%.

Optimized site speed is equally crucial, as it directly influences user satisfaction and search engine rankings. A fast-loading website reduces bounce rates, keeping visitors engaged and more likely to explore the site further. Google and other search engines prioritize fast-loading sites, so improving site speed helps Everlast maintain a competitive edge in search rankings. Enhanced site speed also improves mobile performance, ensuring a seamless experience for users on all devices. Arctic Grey’s site speed team was able to increase speeds on both Desktop and Mobile in Shopify by over 50% than on Magento.
