Case Study: Kotn achieves faster site changes and a unified storefront with Shopify Plus

Kotn used Shopify Storefront API to power a headless build

Kotn, a conscious-fashion brand founded to prioritize quality and social impact, needed a modern, scalable storefront to support the next decade of growth after launching on Shopify in 2014. Facing multiple stores, bespoke product and checkout needs, and a desire to reduce custom apps and workaround hacks, Kotn partnered with Shopify Plus and used the Shopify Storefront API to explore a headless architecture.

Using Shopify Plus and the Storefront API, Kotn consolidated two stores into one with a new CMS, custom product pages and checkout, and fewer bespoke integrations—empowering staff to manage products, inventory, sales and CX more easily. The implementation delivered measurable benefits for Kotn: much faster site changes, consistently fast performance during high-traffic periods, and a technology foundation to support future innovation.
