What Tradewind is for

Tradewind is a free WooCommerce WordPress theme for small online shops. It gives you a clean filterable product grid, a slide-out cart drawer, and a checkout stripped of navigation and upsells so fewer people abandon it. Works perfectly well as a normal site theme if WooCommerce is not installed.

What’s in it

  • Product grid with category, price and attribute filters
  • Slide-out cart drawer with AJAX add-to-cart
  • Checkout template with navigation and upsells removed
  • Product gallery with zoom and thumbnail strip
  • Sale badges, stock status and star ratings styled to match
  • Degrades gracefully to a normal blog theme without WooCommerce

Installing it

  1. Download the ziptradewind.zip, 92 KB. Do not unzip it.
  2. In WordPress, go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
  3. Choose the zip and press Install Now, then Activate.
  4. Set it up under Appearance → Customize — colours, menus, layout and the front-page sections all live there.

Installing by FTP instead? Unzip it and upload the tradewind folder into wp-content/themes/, then activate it from Appearance → Themes.

Frequently asked

Do I need WooCommerce installed?

Only if you want a shop. Without WooCommerce, Tradewind behaves as an ordinary blog and page theme — nothing breaks and no errors appear.

Which WooCommerce version is supported?

It declares support for WooCommerce 8.0 and later, including the newer block-based cart and checkout.

Can I change the number of products per row?

Yes. Appearance → Customize → WooCommerce → Product Catalog sets rows and columns, and the grid stays responsive on phones.

Why is the checkout so plain?

Deliberately. Removing the header navigation and cross-sells from checkout is one of the few reliably measurable ways to reduce cart abandonment.

The same promise on every theme here

Genuinely free, including commercially

WordPress themes are GPL v2+, Shopify themes are MIT. Either way: use it on client sites, change it, rename it, sell the site you built with it. There is no “pro” version being withheld and no licence key.

No account, no email, no upsell

The download button is a download button. We do not ask who you are and there is nothing to unsubscribe from afterwards.

Nothing phones home

No Google Fonts, no analytics, no external requests of any kind. Everything the theme needs is inside the zip, which is also why they are small.

Not a page-builder trap

Every theme works with the block editor and the Customizer alone. None of them require a plugin to look like the demo.
