Trail shoes, a bag and a towel on a dark floor

A WordPress theme for sports shops

When someone looks for trail shoes, they want to see the shoe, the price and the button. In that order.

The theme for selling sportswear, footwear and gear. A home page that sells from the first screen, a shop built with WooCommerce, and the whole design in blocks: no JavaScript of its own and nothing requested from third-party servers.

This is how it looks, for real

This is not a mock-up. It is the theme's home page running, with its photos and its eight demo products. The phone next to it is the same page.

The Zancada home page: the headline over the photo, the four categories and the product grid — The home page: six blocks, from the promise to the checkout.

The same home page on a phone: the headline, the buttons and the categories stacked — On a phone, with nothing to change.

The shop page, with the products in a grid, each with its photo, price and buy button — **The shop.** A product grid with the old price struck through when there is a sale. The shop templates, the product page, the cart and the checkout come from WooCommerce and work from day one.

A product page, with its gallery, price, add-to-cart button and description tabs — **The product page.** Gallery with zoom, description tabs and the buy button, wearing the theme's style.

Shop or services, the same theme

Zancada does not force you to sell. If one day you remove WooCommerce —or you set the site up for a workshop that works by appointment—, the shop home swaps itself for the services one: what people come in to have fitted, with its “from” price, how it works and the phone number. Without touching a line of code and without leaving a hole: the cart in the header goes away with the shop.

The services home of Zancada: the most requested services and how it works — **The services home.** The six most requested services with their starting price —shoe fitting, bike set-up, repairs—, how it works in three steps and a close with phone and WhatsApp. It shows up on its own when WooCommerce is not active.

What it comes with

Measured on the theme you download, not on a list of promises.

Seven block templates: home page, post, page, archive, search, listing and 404. The home page is built from six sections.
Eleven patterns in two groups (home page and shop) to drop the whole page, or just one section, into any page.
Two fonts inside the theme: Oswald for headings and Montserrat for text, one file each. Not requested from Google or anyone else.
Palette and typography in theme.json: nine colours, two families and five fluid sizes. Changed from the editor, without touching code.
No JavaScript of its own and not a single request to a third-party server. Check the HTML: it loads only its two fonts, its photos and its stylesheet.
Accessibility built in: always-visible focus, a skip link, fixed contrast on dark backgrounds and respect for reduced-motion settings.
WooCommerce declared: without it the shop loses its buttons and notices. With the plugin, the grid, the cart and the checkout inherit the design.

With the editor you already use

The block editor is its home: the whole theme is core blocks.
Block libraries (Spectra, Kadence, GenerateBlocks) fit, because they are real blocks and inherit the palette and the fonts.
Elementor and Beaver Builder, with caveats: they can build their own pages inside the theme, but they do not touch the header, the footer or the templates: that is what their own documentation says. If your whole site is going to be Elementor, this is not your theme, and we tell you before you install it.

What you need

WooCommerce, only if you want a shop

What it does not do

It does not ship layouts made with page builders: it is a block theme and says so.
It does not install the demo content: the products in the screenshots are test data, so you can see how it looks.
It does not phone home or send data anywhere.

How to get it running
