# Variant chips

On product pages, you can product variants as a row of clickable buttons or "Chips", which makes it easy to view them at a glance.

By default, product options for "Size" display as chips. You can display other product options as chips by adding their option name in the theme settings. You can also select a **Chip Style** to change their layout.

You can also enable **Variant swatches** on product pages, which display product options as a row of buttons that visually represent your variants with custom colors. See the [Variant swatches guide](https://help.fluorescent.co/stiletto/product-pages/variant-options/variant-swatches).

## Change layout of chips
