Our strategy focused on elevating the brand experience while maintaining their existing technical foundation:

  1. 1    Transform the homepage into the new face of the brand, creating a stronger first impression that captures Halfdays' unique position in the market.

  2. 2   Develop a modular collection landing page system that allows for flexible but on-brand seasonal storytelling.

  3. 3    Enhance product presentation with custom swatch selectors and subtle interactive elements to improve the shopping experience.


Key Features

Reimagined Collection Experience

The collection landing pages we developed represent a significant shift in how Halfdays presents their products. Rather than following traditional seasonal fashion calendars, we created a flexible template system that allows them to launch collections like "Après Ski" with rich storytelling elements. Now, Halfdays can highlight their freshest collections with strong emotional resonance supported by consistent brand expression.

Unified Navigation System

Our redesign streamlined the site's navigation by implementing a cohesive menu structure that works seamlessly across devices. With clear categorization and intuitive organization, customers can easily discover Halfdays' products and collections, even as the brand continues to grow.

Enhanced Product Interaction

We enhanced the product browsing experience with custom swatch selectors and subtle interactive elements that make exploring Halfdays' products more engaging. These refinements not only improve the functionality of the site but also reflect the brand's attention to detail and quality, creating a shopping experience that aligns with the premium nature of Halfdays apparel.
