Colorway Name

The colour name printed under the product title.

The line under the title on a product page that names the colour — BLACK, GREY CAMO, OLIVE.

SUPRA works that line out in two ways, and this metafield is the second of them.

Where the line comes from

  1. A variant option named Color or Colour. If the product has one, the theme prints the selected value and this metafield is never consulted. Nothing to set up.

  2. This metafield. For shops where each colour is a separate product there is no colour option to select, so the name has to sit on the product itself.

Set neither and the line does not appear. That is deliberate: it used to print the whole variant title, which on a product carrying only sizes is the size — a jacket labelled 1.

Setting up the metafield

  1. Shopify admin → SettingsCustom dataProducts

  2. Add definition

  3. Fill in:

    • Name: Colorway name

    • Namespace and key: custom.colorway_name

    • Type: Single line text

  4. Save

Then set it on each product to that product's colour.

Use it with Colorways

This pairs with custom.colorways. That one links the family together and gives you a column of thumbnails per colour; this one names the colour being looked at.

They are independent — either works without the other — but a separate-product colourway family wants both. Without this, every product in the family shows no colour line, which on a page whose whole point is the colour is a strange thing to leave out.

Keep it short

It sits directly under the product title, in the same monospace as everything else. One or two words. It is a colour name, not a description.
