Variant Swatches

DRIFT uses Shopify's native variant swatches for color and size pickers on product pages.

How to access

Variant swatches are configured in Shopify Admin, not in the theme editor. Go to Settings → Custom data → Products and configure swatch metaobjects, or assign swatch values directly to your variants.

How DRIFT renders swatches

DRIFT includes a swatch.liquid snippet that renders Shopify's native swatch values (colors, images, or labels) on the product page. No separate theme setting controls swatch behavior — it follows whatever Shopify provides for the variant option.

Tips

• For best results, use Shopify's swatch metaobject system (Settings → Custom data → Variants → Color) to attach color values or images to each variant option.

• Color and pattern swatches render as small circles. Text values fall back to button-style chips.
