# 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 → **Settings** → **Custom data** → **Products**
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`](/supra-shopify-theme/supra/metafields/colorways.md). 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.
