Apparel E-Commerce UX Audit

What are the top 40 UX improvements for your Apparel site? How does your UX performance compare to Nike, GAP, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Zalando, or Foot Locker?

  • best practice implementation examples and inspiration from other Apparel sites for each of the 40 identified UX improvements to your site,
  • a detailed, unbiased UX performance analysis across the 500 UX parameters to document your current state and identify the best areas to improve,
  • a comparison of your site’s UX performance with the performance of 26 other Apparel e-commerce sites, such as adidas, L.L. Bean, American Eagle, Nordstrom, ASOS, GAP, Marks & Spencer, Nike, Neiman Marcus, Urban Outfitters, H&M, Foot Locker, Victoria’s Secret, Debenhams, Zalando, Ann Taylor, and Gilt (if relevant also the luxury e-commerce sites Gucci, TAG Heuer, Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Chanel).

Custom Apparel Competitors

In addition to auditing your site UX and comparing it to 26 large Apparel e-commerce sites in our benchmark database (adidas, L.L. Bean, American Eagle, Nordstrom, ASOS, GAP, Marks & Spencer, Nike, Neiman Marcus, Urban Outfitters, H&M, Foot Locker, Victoria’s Secret, Debenhams, Zalando, Ann Taylor, and Gilt, or luxury e-commerce sites Gucci, TAG Heuer, Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Chanel), we can also expand the project scope to include a custom competitive audit against any local or direct Apparel competitor(s) you’d like. This is available for sites in most countries and languages.

What Are Audits For?

Most commonly, our UX audit services are used by:

  • Sites that would like to benchmark their UX performance to see how they stack up against major competitors and “State of the Art” sites, to know where resources are best spent on further UX improvements.
  • Sites that would like inspiration and verification of their new redesign. For example, before spending resources on the final production code — auditing prototype designs are cheaper than re-coding.
  • Optimized sites that need a pair of external and unbiased eyes to identify the last tweaks and improvements.
  • Sites that would like to track their UX performance year-over-year, to measure and document UX progress towards stakeholders and over time.

Return on Investment

Even the smallest improvement in conversion rate for any site with significant sales will lead to a notable return on investment. For example, an improvement from 3.1% to 3.6% in conversion rate for a site with $50,000,000 annual sales will yield $8,060,000 extra sales every year.

Within a very short time Baymard Institute provided 15 clear, useful improvement suggestions for our checkout process. We intend to implement all of them.
