Installation Instructions

Important: You must enroll for a subscription before using the app to ensure all features are active.

Free Trial: Your first month is completely free — no charges until the trial ends. The trial starts on the day of first installation. Switching subscription plans does not reset or extend the trial — you will still receive the full trial period based on the original install date. Please contact our support team if you need any assistance.

Adding the A&A Custom Suit option involves the following steps:

Step 1: Add the App Block

Crucial Step: The app will not display the "Customize" button on your storefront until you complete this step.
  1. From your Shopify Admin, go to Online Store > Themes.
  2. Find your current live theme and click Edit Theme.
  3. Select your Product template where you want to add the button (e.g., Products > Default product).
  4. In the Product Information section, decide where you want the A&A Custom Suit button. Just below the "Buy buttons" is a popular choice.
  5. Click + Add block.
  6. Select the Apps tab, then click A&A Custom Suit Button.
  7. The widget will appear in your preview. Drag it to your desired position.
  8. Our template adds a buy button automatically. You should remove the default Buy Buttons to avoid duplicates. This step is mandatory.
  9. Click Save in the top right corner.

Choosing a Template for your Product

A&A Custom Suit includes templates for Men's and Women's garments. You can assign a template in two ways:

Option 1: Auto Detect (Tag-Based) — Men's Garments

The app automatically detects the correct Men's template based on the product tag. Add exactly one of the following tags to your product:

Add Tag for your product

Women's Templates — Tag-Based (Single-Variant Products)

For single-variant Women's products, add one of the following tags to detect the correct template — the same way Men's tags work:

Women's Templates — Auto Detect via Variant Title (Multi-Variant Products)

For products with multiple Women's garment variants, the template switches automatically when a customer changes the selected variant — no tag needed. Name your variants clearly:

Tag vs. Variant Title: Use the product tag for a single-variant Women's product. Use descriptive variant titles for multi-variant products — the correct Women's template loads automatically as the customer switches variants.

Option 2: Select Specific Template

If you prefer not to use auto-detection, you can assign any template (Men's or Women's) directly to the product from the Admin > Catalog page. This overrides tag and variant-title detection.

Select specific customization template

This completes Step 1. Return to your Store Admin page for the next step.

Step 2: Enable Products & Configure Options

Now you need to enable the custom suit builder for your products.

Step 2a: Enable Custom Suit for Store Products

  1. Go to Apps in your Shopify Admin and open A&A Custom Suit.
  2. Click on the Catalog tab.
  3. Find your store product and toggle the switch to On.
  4. Ensure the product uses the correct Product template from Step 1 and/or the correct Product Tag.
  5. If you selected "Auto Detect" in Step 1, a Product Tag is mandatory for the correct template to display.

Enable Customization for Catalog

Step 2b: Enable Custom Suit for Drop Ship Products

To display our products in your store and have us dropship them, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Apps in your Shopify Admin and open A&A Custom Suit.
  2. Click on the Drop Ship Products tab.
  3. Browse the Master Catalog to view available drop ship products.
  4. Select the garment variants you want to sell (Jacket, Pant, Vest, 2PC Suit, 3PC Suit, Overcoat) and set your retail price for each. The supplier cost is automatically calculated per garment type.
  5. Click Import to Store. The product and its variants will be created in your Shopify store. Our products come with the default tag required for that garment type. Do not remove or change this tag.
  6. To add or update variants later, use the Manage Variants button on the Imported tab. You can set profit margins (by percentage or fixed dollar amount), select individual variants, or use Select All to update in bulk.
  7. Once imported, go to the Catalog tab and ensure the newly added drop ship product is toggled to On.
