Case Study: Tropicfeel scales global fulfillment and cuts shipping costs by 20% with Easyship

Tropicfeel creates versatile sneakers and travel products with sustainability at their core

Tropicfeel, a sustainable travel footwear and accessories brand, outgrew the limited and costly fulfillment options available through Kickstarter and Indiegogo after selling over 25,000 pairs to backers across 138 countries. They faced high import tariffs on China‑made products and were relying on a single, expensive courier solution that was eroding margins — so they turned to Easyship to scale their crowdfunding and ecommerce fulfillment.

Easyship integrated with Tropicfeel’s Shopify store and gave them access to 45 shipping solutions with 15 couriers, direct injection options to reduce tariffs, personalized checkout rates, and branded tracking pages. As a result, Tropicfeel shipped to 185 countries and 25,000 backers while cutting shipping costs by about 20% and improving customer satisfaction (~15%), demonstrating a measurable uplift after moving fulfillment to Easyship.
