HEYDUDE makes lightweight, comfortable, casual shoes for adventurers of all varieties. When Crocs purchased HEYDUDE - one of the largest and fastest-growing Shopify Plus brands - for $2.5b in early 2022, they immediately called Sparky to level up the site.

Project overview

  • After a few months of conversion rate optimization, it became apparent that the brand had grown so fast on a technical foundation that was not engineered for scale.
  • With the clock ticking ahead of Holiday, we designed, built, and launched a fully custom Shopify theme that led to a 51% increase in Checkouts Reached.
  • The new site realized upticks in conversion and huge productivity gains for site merch and ops teams who were hamstrung by the old site.
  • A few years later, as HEYDUDE refreshed its branding and looked to bring that evolution to life on the site. Our role as a long-term partner meant we were trusted once again to deliver a high-performance rebuild that aligned with their next stage of growth.

Sparky magic

  • We did the entire project in three months, and there was zero margin for error.
  • Advanced custom integration with Fast Simon, Narvar, and other third-party systems.
