Product tabs

The Product tabs section offers an alternate layout for your product description and details. Add multiple tabs with additional information such as size or care guides, shipping and returns, or customer testimonials.

The default product template uses the Product tabs section. Use one of the alternate templates to display the product description and details in the product overview columns.

On mobile, product tabs display as collapsible rows for the most optimal layout.
