Hi Product hunt! I’m really excited to introduce Kiwi Sizing, a fit recommender product for e-commerce stores. There is no doubt that online shopping is the future of retail. However when it comes to clothing, it is impossible to replicate the same try-ons you can do in a physical store. This is why 20-40% of online returns are from fit issues. As both a frequent online shopper and a past store owner that used to runs a Shopify store, I know how much of an pain sizing is for online clothing shops. There is simply no good and affordable solutions available. This is why we created Kiwi Sizing. We want to make sizing easier for both the merchants and the shoppers. First, Kiwi Sizing makes creating and managing all of your size charts easy. With an intuitive interface, you can create size tables with automatic unit conversions. Most importantly, we offer a set of tools for you to set up size recommenders that can automatically suggest your customers the best size to purchase. We understand that there are nuanced differences between products. So the recommender set-up tool allows you to customize to match the style and ideal fit of your clothing. We even have a custom recommender feature where you can completely customize the recommendation logic, and even write actual code. Currently we are the most popular Sizing solution on Shopify, with over 450 5-star ratings. And we also support other e-commerce platforms, including BigCommerce, WooCommerce, 3dCart, Magento, and Volusion. While this is a Saas B2B product designed for e-commerce store owners, ultimately it is meant for the online shoppers like you and me. We hope to improve the challenges of selecting sizes in online shopping so that we never need to return because of surprising fit.

This is brilliant. I've thought about this problem before since some of my friends face it. Good job Sam. I tried the demo website as a user and went for the What's my size feature. I choose that I prefer the regular fit but in the recommendation it showed that the recommended size (L) lies closer to the red Tight side on the spectrum. If I choose the larger size, the arrow will go to green side of the spectrum, yet, there is a red (x) on the larger size. I couldn't understand it completely, should I go for tighter recommended L or the not-recommended regular fit XL. I felt like sharing this. Hope it's useful. Yousef

@yousefales Hi Thanks for trying it out. Hey yeah so we have gotten feedback on the result page not being super intuitive. Here's what's going on: Given your input, we have estimated your body sizes then compared with the clothing's measurements. We decided that even though the larger size (XL) fit better based on your chest, it is too long for you (it is decided by the merchant how long the the shirt should fall on the body). Hence the red (x) - it signals the size is either too large/small or too long/short. Overall, we think L would fit the best.

@spchuang Great, this makes total sense. I think explaining it to me as a user might be a good option. Maybe when I hover over the X mark this explanation appears. All the best Sam, P.S. loved the pets section on your demo website

I‘ve been using Kiwi add-on in my store since a while ago and it noticeably increased my conversion rates, decreased abandoned carts

This is a very useful Shopify app for any retailers selling apparel products. It makes it easy for users to navigate between Metric and Imperial systems, and it removes a lot of time required to set up a product collection on the back end. Congrats on the launch!

@dan_hernden Thanks Dan!

Long time fan of kiwi sizing. Great and easy to use sizing tool that alleviates a lot of the guess work associated with online shopping. Highly recommended!
Sam Chuang
@mikie_noma Thanks! As online-shopping takes over retail shopping, we hope to give buyers more confidence when selecting which size to purchase :)
Eric Ning
Looks super great; this is always a pain point for me when I'm trying to find clothes online. Would love to see this kind of dynamic sizing on all the online stores that I buy from!
Sam Chuang
@eric_ning Thanks! That would be our goal as well :)
Bonnie Chen
Super cool. As a SMB, I find that this mitigates a lot of back and forth guesswork id traditionally have to subject myself through to figure out the right kinds of inventory to stock my store with. With kiwi, there is less back and forth on the business and consumer side. Which in these precarious health days - everyone appreciates.
Sam Chuang
@bonnieschen Thanks! And that's totally right - inventory projection should take into account of the size distribution of the target customer. And our app is working on providing on this type of analytical data in the future
Justin Wei
Clothing sizes has always been a super confusing aspect of shopping in general. Love how easy the charts are to use and the useful tips. Appreciate that it also includes sizing for pets too, for all the dog lovers out there!
Sam Chuang
@justin_wei2 Thanks! Our app is designed for all clothing products, be it adults, kids or pets. In fact clothing sizes for dogs is so difficult, a lot of pet stores use our app to help select sizes directly based on dog breeds

Sizing for online shipping is always tricky and hard to get the exact size right, at least for me. This app will increase confidence to buyer and save a lot of hassle in returning wrong size item. Great idea!
