How to Add a Size Chart in Shopify – Step-by-Step Guide!

Why You Need a Size Chart for Your Shopify Store

If you’re running an online clothing or footwear store on Shopify, having a size chart is essential. A well-designed size chart can significantly improve the customer experience and reduce return rates by helping customers find the right fit, thereby increasing their confidence in making a purchase.

Step 1: Using Shopify’s Built-In Size Chart Feature

Shopify doesn’t offer a dedicated size chart feature, but you can create one manually by adding a new page and linking it in your product descriptions. Here’s how to do it:

1. Log into Your Shopify Store
   Go to the Shopify website and click on the login button to access your store’s admin dashboard.

2. Navigate to Your Pages
   Once inside your store, click on “Online Store” from the left sidebar. Then choose “Pages.”

3. Add a New Page
   Click the “Add page” button. Title it something like “Size Chart” to make it easily identifiable.

4. Create Your Size Chart
   Use design tools like Canva to create a size chart. Type “Canva” on any device and search for "size chart" templates. Customize a template to fit your product line. For example, if you sell shirts, you can include measurements for Small, Medium, Large, etc. Once you finalize your design, download the size chart as an image.

5. Upload Your Size Chart to Shopify
   Back in your Shopify dashboard, click on the “Insert image” button in your new page. Upload the image of the size chart you just created. Once uploaded, click “Done” and then hit “Save.”

6. Link to Your Size Chart
   After saving, you can link this page within your product descriptions to make it easily accessible for customers.

Step 2: Adding a Size Chart Using a Shopify App

For a more streamlined and professional approach, consider using a Shopify app. Popular options include:

• Size Chart and Fit Guide by Avada
• Ultimate Size Chart
• Clean Size Charts and Guides

How to Install a Size Chart App:

1. Access the Shopify App Store
   From your Shopify dashboard, click on “Apps.”

2. Find a Suitable App
   Type “size chart” in the search bar to view available apps. Choose one that meets your needs, such as “Size Chart and Fit Guide by Avada,” and click “Install.”

3. Follow On-Screen Instructions
   After installation, follow the app’s instructions to set up and customize your size chart.

Step 3: Customizing Size Charts with HTML

If you want full control over the appearance, you can add a size chart directly into your product pages using custom HTML or Liquid code. Here’s how:

1. Go to Themes
   In the Shopify admin panel, click on “Online Store,” and then “Themes.”

2. Customize Your Current Theme
   Click the “Customize” button next to your active theme.

3. Select Product Pages
   Within the theme editor, navigate to the product pages where you’d like to add the size chart.

4. Add Custom Code
   Click on “Add section” and choose the Custom HTML block. Paste your size chart code (e.g., HTML or Liquid) into this section.

5. Save Your Changes
   Click the “Save” button to implement the changes on your store.

Best Practices for Size Charts

• Clear Measurements: Include both inches and centimeters, along with conversion charts for international customers.
• Visual Aids: Add diagrams or images showing how to measure.
• Easy Access: Place the size chart near product descriptions or as a popup button.
• Mobile Optimization: Ensure the size chart is mobile-friendly so it looks good on smartphones and tablets.
