What merchants say about Origin Shopify theme

We know about 22 reviews · showing 6

Merchant sentiment summary

10 of 22 reviews are positive, 9 neutral and 3 negative. Merchants praise the clean, simple design, its suitability for single-product stores and its ease of editing without code. The most common criticism is product image handling: several report only one image showing on product pages, and others report blurry thumbnails and difficulty building image layouts; the reviews do not say these were resolved.

Why the 3rd or so oldest and biggest social platform, LinkedIn, isn’t among all free themes’ icons? ?!?

I love this theme! I have had so many compliments about my new website and huge increase in sales. No issues at all so far, everything works seamlessly

Hello! I use your Shopify “Origin” theme. My products are approved in Google Merchant Center via the Google & YouTube app, ads and shopping visibility are enabled, and there are no Google restrictions. However, Google Ads show 0 impressions because the product ad appears empty, with no products. Could this be related to the theme code or settings? I’d appreciate your reply. Thank you!

Love this theme. However, I wish we would see the same layout once downloaded. I would like to recreate the THE STORY - Exceptional goods section.

Great theme. Would love the possibility to add a sticky add to cart button though.

I’m trying to recreate the same image collage shown in the official Origin demo (the leather bag product images), but it seems impossible using the sections available in the theme. The demo has a seamless multi-image layout with no gaps between the pictures, and the images appear perfectly connected. However, neither the Collage section nor the Multicolumn section in the theme editor allow this.
