Apparel Add-on for ProductCart
Create a professional online clothing store with ProductCart's Apparel Add-On
The Apparel Add-On gives stores using our ProductCart ecommerce software the ability to handle inventory for product variations (e.g. color/size combinations). This is something that is typical of the apparel industry (yep, that's why we called it that way), but it applies to other industries as well. What does this mean? For example, if size 32/34 of a pair of black pants is out of stock, the customer is notified.
- Perfect for apparel companies
- Manage inventory on product options
- Customize the way "out of stock" items are handled
- Show a different product image when customers click on a color swatch or style link.

The Apparel Add-On can be easily added to any store running ProductCart v2.62 and above. It includes a number of features that make it easy to create and run a great looking, powerful online clothing store. A few of them are described in the image below.
- Automatically show a different product image when customers click on a color swatch.
The Apparel Add-On adds new features to your ProductCart-powered storefront. For example, it allows customers to view different variations of a product's image based on different colors, different styles, etc. ProductCart lets you associate an image with each options (e.g. color swatches: you can associate a small red square with the option "red"). When customers click on it, the image changes accordingly. See for yourself>> - Automatically prevent customers from ordering out-of-stock product variations.
When a selection is made from the first option (e.g. color: "Mountain Red", see image above), the second drop-down (e.g. size: "M") is instantly updated, without refreshing the page. If any of the available combinations (e.g. "Mountain Red/S", "Mountain Red/M", etc.) is out of stock, ProductCart will either show a custom out of stock message, or hide the selection. It's up to you, as this setting can be configured on a product by product basis. - Define each product variation.
For each product variation (e.g. color/size combinations), you can specify a part number, a general image, a detail view image, a price differential (e.g. Add $5 for all XXL sizes), product weight (e.g. a XXL jacket might weigh much more than the XS version of the same product), and inventory information (stock count or 'disregard stock', product-specific back-ordering settings). The Apparel Add-On equips ProductCart's Control Panel with a number of tools that allow you to quickly create and efficiently manage all product variations. - Set quantity discounts for each product variation.
For additional sales flexibility, you can set individual quantity discounts for each product variation. This allows you, for instance, to place all "small" sizes of a certain sweater "on sale" without altering the main product's price.
New in version 3
We have made several, key improvements to this popular ProductCart add-on. Among them:
- The ability for you to define your sub-products based on more than 2 option groups (e.g. "size", "color", and "style"). This is directly related to the fact that ProductCart v3 support unlimited product options.
- The ability for your customers to add more than one sub-product to the cart at the same time (e.g. add "Blue-Small" and "Red-Medium" to the cart at the same time). Your customers will love this feature. See at work on our demo store: select a color, a size, and then click on "Save and choose another".
- A way to handle back-orders at the sub-product level (e.g. "Blue-Small" is in stock, "Blue-Medium" ships in 5 days and can be purchased, "Blue-Large" is out of stock and cannot be purchased)
- The ability to disregard inventory levels at the sub-product level (sub-products are available regardless of stock level)
- MAC-only pages no longer exist as the JavaScript on the main product page has been updated to support FireFox and Safari on the MAC
- The ability to create sub-products with just 1 option assigned to the "Apparel" product (e.g. "size", but no "color") instead of the 2 previously required.
