Natural movement deserves a naturally great experience.

The goal was simple: make online feel as personal and purposeful as in-store.

Project Brief

This U.S.-based natural shoe company operates both a local shop in West Virginia and a growing online storefront. Known for its minimalist, health-conscious footwear, the brand needed a website that reflected its values—clarity, comfort, and quality. The original site felt outdated, slow, and lacked the design polish needed to match the ethos of the products. I led a complete redesign focused on improving user experience and site speed, introducing a clean, modern aesthetic with earthy tones, high-impact visuals, and simplified navigation. The result is a streamlined store that mirrors the brand’s grounded identity—both visually and functionally.

Project Goals & Strategy Overview

The goal was to bring digital consistency to a brand already trusted locally—making the online experience feel as warm, clear, and confident as the in-person one.
