The challenge

The challenge

Every drop needed a developer, a week of tickets and a nervous launch morning.

Strade sells in limited runs. The old theme could not handle a drop page, a countdown and a surge of traffic at the same time.

Our approach

Our approach

A headless store with drop pages the team builds from Sanity blocks in an afternoon.

Shopify for the catalogue and checkout, Next.js for speed under load, and a page builder made of the pieces Strade actually uses.
