10 Best Shopify Apps for Clothing Stores, Sorted by the Job They Do

A shopper wants your hoodie in medium and large, in black and in sage. She opens the size chart and still can't tell if it runs small. She adds one variant to the cart, goes back, picks the next one, and gives up after the second. The hoodie that does arrive is the wrong size, so it comes back.

Clothing has more ways to go wrong than most products, because every sale depends on picking the right size and color. The Shopify App Store has hundreds of "fashion" apps, and most lists of them don't say which problem each app actually solves.

The best Shopify apps for clothing stores each fix one of the places where a size or color choice breaks down: ordering several sizes and colors at once, finding the right size, seeing every color, trusting the fit, getting a sold-out size back, swapping a wrong size, restocking, and selling the full outfit. This guide covers what Shopify already does for free, 10 apps grouped by the job they do (prices and reviews checked in November 2026), and three app stacks for different kinds of clothing stores.

Short answer: The best Shopify apps for clothing stores are one app per job: MultiVariants for ordering several sizes and colors at once, Kiwi for size charts, Color Swatch King for color swatches, Judge.me for photo and fit reviews, DiscountRay for volume pricing, PushBundle for outfit bundles, STOQ for sold-out sizes, AfterShip Returns for size exchanges, Prediko for inventory planning, and Klaviyo for email and SMS. For size and color filters, Shopify's own free Search & Discovery app is usually enough.

TL;DR

• Pick apps by the job they do. Each one should fix a specific place where a size or color choice goes wrong.

• Check what Shopify does first: 2,048 variants per product, size and color filters, self-serve returns, and B2B features on Basic and up.

• Add size and fit tools first, because size and fit are the top reason clothing gets returned.

• If shoppers or buyers order several sizes or colors at once, a variant table saves them from adding each one separately.

• Exchanges keep revenue that refunds lose, and Shopify's self-serve returns don't handle exchanges.

• A new boutique can start at $0 a month. The growing-brand stack in this guide costs about $114 a month before usage fees.

What Makes a Clothing Store Different on Shopify

Every clothing product is a grid of sizes and colors, and every sale depends on the shopper picking the right cell in that grid. That creates problems most other stores don't have: shoppers who aren't sure about fit, returns because of the wrong size, sizes that sell out first, and buyers who want several sizes at once.

Those problems get bigger when the same catalog also sells to boutiques, teams, or companies, because buyers then order full size runs instead of single pieces. The pillar on how size runs and colorways work in apparel wholesale ordering covers that side in depth. For app choices, it helps to map each moment where a clothing sale can break.

What Shopify Already Does Before You Install Anything

Shopify now covers more of a clothing store's basics than it did a year ago, so check these features before you pay for an app that does the same thing.

• Up to 2,048 variants per product. Shopify raised the variant limit from 100 to 2,048 for all merchants in October 2025. A hoodie in eight sizes and 20 colors no longer has to be split into several products. One catch: apps that haven't moved to Shopify's newer product APIs can break on products with more than 100 variants, so ask each app you install whether it supports them.

• Size and color filters. Shopify's free Search & Discovery app builds storefront filters from product options such as size and color, along with availability and price. You can have up to 25 filters, filters don't show on collections with more than 5,000 products, and your theme has to support them. Very large catalogs often move to a paid search app such as Boost AI Search & Filter or Searchanise.

• Self-serve returns. Customers can request a return from their account. Shopify's self-serve returns don't support exchange requests, and they need the newer customer accounts.

• B2B on Basic, Grow, and Advanced. Since April 2026, non-Plus plans include key B2B features: up to three B2B catalogs, company profiles, payment terms, and volume pricing. Unlimited catalogs and assigning a catalog directly to a company remain on Plus.

• Combined Listings. Shopify's Combined Listings app groups separate color products into one listing with its own swatches. It's available only on Plus and enterprise plans.

These features cover the basics. The apps below fill the gaps that Shopify doesn't handle without an app.

How We Chose These Apps

Each app had to fix a specific clothing problem, work alongside the others in the list, and show public pricing and solid reviews on the Shopify App Store.

• It solves a size, color, fit, or restock problem. General marketing tools made the list only if they handle clothing-specific jobs, such as back-in-stock alerts for one size.

• It has strong reviews. Most apps here have a rating of 4.6 or higher from hundreds of reviews. Two exceptions are explained in their entries: DiscountRay and PushBundle are newer apps with fewer reviews so far.

• Its pricing is clear. A free plan or a public entry price, with one exception (Prediko) noted.

• No two apps do the same job. Where apps overlap, we say which one to pick.

Disclosure: MultiVariants, DiscountRay, and PushBundle are our own apps. We include them where they fit and say where another tool fits better.

The 10 Best Shopify Apps for Clothing Stores, by Job

1. MultiVariants Bulk Order B2B

Best for ordering several sizes and colors in one step

Shopify's product page adds one variant at a time. That's fine for a shopper buying one shirt, but it slows down a parent ordering for three kids, a soccer club ordering 18 jerseys in five sizes, a company buying team hoodies, or a boutique restocking a full size run. MultiVariants shows every size and color in a table with quantity boxes, so buyers enter quantities and add everything to the cart at once. It's built for letting customers order multiple sizes and colors in one step, on a normal product page, for both retail and wholesale shoppers.

Key features:

• A variant table with quantity boxes in list, grid, or size-by-color matrix layouts

• Live stock levels and out-of-stock badges inside the table

• Minimum and maximum quantities per variant, per combined total, or per option, such as at least six units of each color

• Custom product options with file upload, for logos, names, and numbers on team or company orders

Pricing: Starter is free and includes the variant table with quantity boxes. Standard is $12.99/month and adds the grid and matrix layouts, B2B catalog pricing, and a cart minimum. Professional is $29.99/month and adds per-variant and per-option minimums and maximums, plus custom options with file upload. Paid plans have a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 372 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: MultiVariants replaces the variant picker on the products you assign it to, so test it on one product alongside any swatch app before you roll it out. The matrix layout and per-variant rules are on paid plans.

Skip it if: Your shoppers almost always buy one item in one size.

2. Kiwi Size Chart & Recommender

Best for size charts and fit guidance

Size is the biggest risk in every clothing sale. Coresight Research estimated the average online apparel return rate at 24.4% in 2023, and 53% of the apparel brands and retailers it surveyed named size and fit as the top reason. Kiwi puts a clear size chart, and optionally a size recommender, on every product page so shoppers pick the right size before they buy.

Key features:

• Import size charts from a CSV file, an image, or your product descriptions

• Assign charts by product or collection, so new products get the right chart automatically

• An AI size recommender that asks shoppers a few questions (Plus plan and up)

• Automatic unit conversion based on the shopper's location

Pricing: Free for up to 3 charts (with a Kiwi watermark). Premium is $7.99/month, Plus is $14.99/month, and Ultimate is $26.99/month. Plus and Ultimate add charges based on order volume. Paid plans have a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 from 1,241 reviews.

Watch out for: The size recommender and its analytics start on the Plus plan, and that plan adds usage charges as your orders grow.

Skip it if: You sell a small range with one size system. Most Shopify themes can show a size chart page in a pop-up or tab on the product page for free.

3. Color Swatch King

Best for showing every color on product and collection pages

Shoppers buy clothing by color first, and a dropdown that says "Color: Sage" sells it poorly. Color Swatch King replaces dropdowns with color or image swatches, shows those swatches on collection pages, and greys out combinations that are sold out, so a shopper can see right away that sage only comes in small and medium.

Key features:

• Color, image, and custom image swatches, or buttons and dropdowns where they fit better

• Swatches on collection pages, so shoppers see every color without opening the product

• Grey out or hide sold-out size and color combinations, with New, Sale, and Sold-out badges

• Size chart links, and support for Shopify Markets and B2B

Pricing: Tied to your Shopify plan: $14.90/month on Basic, $29.90 on Grow, $49.90 on Advanced, and $99.90 on Plus. There's a 30-day free trial. The free plan is only for Shopify Partner, staff, and trial stores.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 3,216 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: The price goes up when you move to a bigger Shopify plan, even if your catalog stays the same.

Skip it if: Your theme's built-in swatches already look right, or you're on Plus and use Combined Listings.

4. Judge.me Product Reviews

Best for photo reviews that show fit

Clothing shoppers read reviews to answer one question: how does it fit? In Baymard Institute's 2026 apparel research, size accuracy and fit details were the most sought-after information in reviews, named by 48% of US online shoppers. Judge.me collects photo and video reviews for free, so customers can show how a piece looks on a real body.

Key features:

• Unlimited photo and video reviews on the free plan

• Automatic review request emails after delivery

• Star ratings in Google search results through rich snippets

• A Q&A widget, AI review summaries, and Klaviyo integration on the paid plan

Pricing: Free forever for unlimited reviews. The Awesome plan is $15/month, with a 15-day free trial.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 49,950 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: The listing doesn't mention a dedicated fit rating, such as "runs small / true to size / runs large." Ask customers about fit in your review request email so their reviews answer it.

Skip it if: Your email or loyalty platform already collects reviews and shows them on your product pages.

5. DiscountRay

Best for volume and customer-specific pricing

Clothing stores often sell to more than one kind of customer: shoppers, VIPs, boutiques, and teams ordering 20 jerseys. DiscountRay, made by the same company as MultiVariants, sets up quantity breaks, tiered pricing, and prices for specific customer groups, so a team ordering 20 shirts automatically gets a lower price per shirt.

Key features:

• Quantity discounts and tiered pricing, including discounts on specific variants

• Pricing by customer tag, company, or customer list

• Offers based on country, cart value, cart items, or order history

• Free gifts, shipping discounts, and scheduled discounts

Pricing: Starter is free. Growth is $14/month and Pro is $29/month, with a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 12 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: It has few reviews so far, and Shopify's native B2B volume pricing may already cover simple wholesale price breaks.

Skip it if: You only sell at one retail price and run sitewide sales with Shopify's built-in discounts.

6. PushBundle

Best for outfit bundles, multi-packs, and build-a-box

Clothing shoppers rarely need just one piece. A top sells better next to the matching bottoms, basics sell in multi-packs, and gift shoppers want a ready set. PushBundle (listed on the App Store as Push Bundle ‑ Build a Box BYOB) lets shoppers buy a full outfit, a 3-pack of tees, or a box they build themselves at a bundle price, so orders get bigger without a sitewide sale.

Key features:

• Volume bundle discounts and quantity breaks, such as three tees for a set price, on the free plan

• Mix-and-match bundles across products or variants, so shoppers still pick their own sizes and colors

• Multi-step build-a-box bundles and cross-sell bundles

• Minimum and maximum quantities and variant limits, plus Shopify POS support

Pricing: Starter is free and includes volume bundles. Growth is $14/month and adds build-a-box, mix-and-match, and cross-sell bundles, with a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 26 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: Mix-and-match and build-a-box bundles are on the Growth plan, and the app has few reviews so far.

Skip it if: You only sell fixed sets that never change, which Shopify's free Bundles app can handle.

7. Preorder, Back In Stock – STOQ

Best for sold-out sizes

The most popular size sells out first, and the shopper who wanted it usually leaves for good. STOQ adds a "Notify me" button to sold-out sizes and colors and sends an email or SMS when that exact variant is back. It can also take preorders, which is useful for restocks you already have on the way.

Key features:

• "Notify me" buttons on sold-out variants, with automatic email and SMS restock alerts

• Preorders, including deposits and partial payments

• Klaviyo sync, multi-location support, and B2B preorders

Pricing: Free for 10 preorders and 30 emails a month. Lite is $10/month, Pro is $29/month, and Unlimited is $69/month. Paid plans have a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 5.0 out of 5 from 3,931 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: The free plan's 30 emails a month runs out quickly once a popular size sells out.

Skip it if: You already send back-in-stock emails through Klaviyo and don't take preorders.

8. AfterShip Returns & Exchanges

Best for turning wrong-size returns into exchanges

Returns are part of selling clothes online. The National Retail Federation and Happy Returns estimated that 19.3% of online sales would be returned in 2025. A wrong-size return is the easiest one to save, because the customer still wants the item in a different size. AfterShip gives customers a return portal where they can swap sizes or take store credit instead of a refund.

Key features:

• Exchanges for a different size, color, or product

• Store credit, and bonus credit to encourage an exchange over a refund

• A branded return portal with return labels

• Advanced workflows, AI-powered exchanges, and fraud prevention on the Premium plan

Pricing: The free Return Care plan uses shopper-funded returns. Essentials is $19/month for 20 returns ($0.50 for each extra return). Premium is $119/month for 100 returns ($1 each after that). Paid plans have a 7-day free trial.

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 from 1,545 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: Per-return fees above your plan's limit add up in January, when holiday returns arrive.

Skip it if: You get only a few returns a month and Shopify's self-serve returns are enough. Larger brands often compare Loop Returns & Exchanges, which is free for brands with 5,000+ annual orders and has paid plans from $340/month.

9. Prediko

Best for planning stock by size and season

Reordering a full size run when only medium and large sold leaves you with extra smalls and XLs. Prediko forecasts demand by product, SKU, and season, and turns that forecast into purchase orders, so you reorder the sizes and colors that actually sell.

Key features:

• AI demand forecasting by product, SKU, and seasonality

• Unlimited purchase orders, with a supply planner

• Inventory reports and low-stock alerts

• Multi-location inventory, retail store support, and stock takes

Pricing: Revenue-based plans. The App Store listing doesn't show a price, so check Prediko's website. There's a 14-day free trial.

Rating: 4.9 out of 5 from 267 reviews. Built for Shopify.

Watch out for: Without a public price on the listing, you'll need to check the cost for your revenue level before you commit.

Skip it if: You reorder a few times a year and a spreadsheet built from Shopify's inventory reports already works.

10. Klaviyo

Best for email and SMS that follow what customers browse and buy

Clothing customers come back for new drops, restocks, and sales on items they looked at. Klaviyo connects to your Shopify data and sends automatic flows, such as abandoned cart, browse abandonment, back-in-stock, and price drop emails, along with campaigns to segments of your list.

Key features:

• Pre-built flows for abandoned carts, browse abandonment, back-in-stock, and price drops

• Segmentation based on what customers bought, browsed, and how they engaged

• Email, SMS, and WhatsApp in one platform

Pricing: Free for up to 250 active profiles and 500 emails a month. Email plans start at $20/month and SMS plans at $15/month.

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 from 3,436 reviews.

Watch out for: The cost rises with the size of your list, so clean out inactive profiles regularly.

Skip it if: You're just starting out. Shopify Messaging, Shopify's own app, includes 10,000 free emails a month and covers simple campaigns and automations.

Which App Stack Fits Your Clothing Store?

Start with the free stack, then add an app only when your own data shows the problem it fixes, such as rising wrong-size returns or emails asking about sold-out sizes.

Prices are list prices from the Shopify App Store on November 11, 2026, before usage fees and taxes.

New boutique. The free stack covers the basics: shoppers can filter by size, see a size chart, read photo reviews, get a discount for buying a multi-pack, and sign up for a restock alert. Watch your return reasons and your sold-out pages for the first few months, because those show you which paid app to add first.

Growing DTC brand. Once you're shipping every day, a size-by-color order table, swatches, outfit bundles, exchanges, and proper email flows pay for themselves. Shoppers buying for a family or a group can add every size in one step, a shopper who likes the top can buy the full outfit as a bundle, and a wrong-size return becomes an exchange instead of a refund.

Brand that also sells in bulk. If boutiques, sports clubs, schools, or companies order from your store, they need to enter quantities for a whole size run, meet minimums, and see their own prices. MultiVariants Professional adds minimums per size or color for those buyers. If you don't need them, stay on Standard and the total drops to about $128.

If most of your catalog is printed tees, the apps for selling T-shirts, like print-on-demand and personalization tools, are a better starting point than this list. If you sell footwear too, bulk ordering for shoe sizes and widths works much like apparel size runs, with an extra width option.

Apps That Overlap, and How to Avoid Paying Twice

Several clothing apps touch the same part of your store, so choose one app for each job and turn off the duplicate feature in the other.

• Swatch app and MultiVariants. Both change how variants appear on the product page. Many stores use swatches on single-item products and the MultiVariants table on products that people order in multiples. Test both on one product before you change your whole catalog.

• Klaviyo and STOQ. Both can send back-in-stock emails. Use STOQ if you also need preorders or SMS alerts with deposits. Otherwise, Klaviyo's flow may be enough.

• Judge.me and your email platform's reviews. Run one review app, so ratings and review counts aren't split across two widgets.

• AfterShip and Shopify self-serve returns. If you install a returns app, send customers to its portal only, so they don't see two different return flows.

• DiscountRay and Shopify B2B volume pricing. Shopify's native volume pricing works inside B2B catalogs. Use an app when you need tiered prices for retail shoppers too, or pricing by customer tag or list.

• PushBundle and DiscountRay. Both can give quantity discounts. Use PushBundle when the discount belongs to a bundle, like an outfit or a 3-pack, and DiscountRay for price rules by customer group or order size.

• Kiwi and Color Swatch King. Both can link to a size chart. Keep the chart in Kiwi and use Color Swatch King only for swatches.

Every app that adds code to your storefront can affect page speed. Remove apps you've stopped using, and check that their code has left your theme.

Common Mistakes When Choosing Clothing Store Apps

• Installing a full stack on day one. Ten apps before your first 100 orders means monthly fees and slower pages for problems you don't have yet.

• Splitting every color into a separate product just to get swatches. That splits your reviews and inventory across products. A swatch app, or Combined Listings on Plus, shows separate colors without that cost.

• Treating every return as a refund. A customer who ordered the wrong size usually still wants the item. Offer an exchange first.

• Setting up a size chart once and never updating it. When a factory, fabric, or pattern changes, the chart has to change too, or returns go up.

• Making bulk buyers add one variant at a time. A team or boutique ordering 30 pieces in five sizes and two colors shouldn't need 10 trips to the cart.

• Choosing by star rating alone. Read recent reviews from other clothing stores, and check that the app works with your theme and your other apps.

Conclusion

The best Shopify apps for clothing stores don't do everything. Each one fixes one moment where a size or color choice can go wrong, from finding the right size to swapping the wrong one. Check what Shopify already does first, because filters, 2,048 variants, self-serve returns, and basic B2B features are now included.

Then start small. A new boutique can run well on free plans, a growing brand needs swatches, exchanges, and email flows, and a brand that sells to boutiques or teams needs fast multi-size ordering and volume pricing. Add each app when your own data shows you the problem it solves.
