About SikSilk

SikSilk is a UK-based fashion brand recognized for their fusion of sportswear and street style.

Established in 2012 by friends Barry Gill, David Thompson, and Sam Kay from Scarborough, North Yorkshire, the label has rapidly gained a strong following, especially among younger audiences who love their bold, modern aesthetic.

With retail locations and partners throughout the United States, Europe, and Australia, SikSilk has cultivated a worldwide fan base.

The Merchandising Challenge

Using a competing Shopify merchandising platform, SikSilk was searching for something with the flexibility and intelligence required for real-time, variant-level control.

Their merchandising team needed a solution that could:

So, they approached us about our Shopify app for collection sorting, looking to optimize how products and variants were displayed.

The latter becomes a pain point for many brands due to Shopify’s limitations around managing different collection sorting strategies and product recommendations per market.

This complexity was further amplified on mobile, where SikSilk needed the same real-time, size-aware merchandising logic to power their Tapcart app and deliver a consistent experience across all shopping channels.

The Winning Merchandising Solution

Kimonix equipped SikSilk with advanced collection sorting capabilities, allowing the brand to automatically sort products in real-time based on over 100 parameters, such as:

…and many more!

Additionally, Kimonix’s recently released no-code Shopify Markets integration offered an easy, hassle-free, plug-and-play solution to one of Shopify’s biggest challenges: localized merchandising per market.

This feature streamlined SikSilk’s multi-regional operations, ensuring that customers across markets see the most accurate, localized inventory every time they shop - across both web and their Tapcart mobile app.

The Results

Kimonix’s new markets fix allows us to manage multiple stock locations seamlessly, which has streamlined our inventory across different regions. The ability to sort products by sizes based on stock availability has made browsing much more intuitive, reducing cart abandonment and improving the overall shopping experience.
