The story
Sole District is a fictional Johannesburg sneaker label, and it exists to make a point about reuse.
It runs on exactly the same store engine as Karoo Coffee Co. Same cart, same checkout, same admin panel, same database structure. Sizes work the way coffee grinds did, because the underlying idea is the same: one product, several versions, each with its own stock.
What changed is everything you can see. Karoo is warm and cream and slow. Sole District is dark, loud and monochrome. Two stores that look nothing alike, built on one foundation, which is exactly what happens when a client asks for something and it turns out I have solved most of it before.
What I built
- Full storefront rebrand on a shared store engine
- UK size variants with per-size stock
- Cart, guest checkout and Payfast flow
- Admin panel for products, stock and orders
