All around the world, hundreds of retail stores see the light of day every week, and they need to have an engaging online presence, as more and more customers are doing their shopping via the internet. This is where designers step in. It is common knowledge that a professional website is bound to increase sales, and using an adequate theme is the key to everything. I decided to make up a list of the latest outstanding WooCommerce themes. Check it out. 

Bi-Shop

Bi-Shop is truly amazing. To be honest, I've never encountered a more wholesome and intuitive theme than this one. It's based on a strong framework, extremely easy to work with, and surprisingly versatile.  When you buy this theme, in reality, you receive 8 skins and 8 different graphic styles. You will be able to create an infinite number of responsive layouts using the visual composer and demo importer. And since time is of the essence, rest assured knowing that you won't take long to get the hang of it and strike up unique websites for your clients. 

Apart from various e-commerce features, Bi-Shop comes with tons of widgets and plugins, as well as full BuddyPress and BBPress integration. In addition, owners of this theme are privy to an exclusive set of Sliders, and unlimited Parallax. Last but not least, you also get RTL, lovely JQuery effects, and great CSS 3. 

Snapshop

Working on an online gadget shop? If so, you'll love Snapshop. It has a modern, eye-catching design, that won't fail to draw flocks of photography and technology aficionados. Start from a series of wicked awesome page templates, and use various widgets to customize each individual page, if so you wish. Lastly, Snapshop supports beautifully styled WordPress post formats. 

Highlander

Highlander is a fair option in any instance. This theme is retina-ready and responsive, which means it will deliver the contents of your client's store in a perfect wrapping, into the visitor's ‘palms', who will be able to get the best of it over any type of device. Even more, Highlander sports an unlimited color scheme and 50+ module positions in order to customize theme settings. 

Flatshop

Meet Flatshop from Themify, the theme that aced flat design and guarantees a charming user experience. The product lightbox and Ajax slidecart make it super simple for clients to study product specifications and add them to their shopping carts without waiting for the page to reload. Besides, designers are at liberty to use effects like fly-in animations and the parallax scrolling technique, and come up with ravishing E-commerce websites. Flatshop's frontend drag-and-drop builder allows you to move modules around, and preview every step in real time, before applying it.  On top of everything, you may create as many shop pages as you want, and customize each of their layouts in 4 different ways. 

Lighting Store

Lighting Store is wrought with elegance and visual depth. That is why it would be an ideal choice for online shops that deal in lighting products and other apartment-related items. If you purchase this theme, know that it comes with a 2-step installation process, and a built-in theme customizer. Any and all updates to this theme will be enacted immediately, throughout your lifetime. You would gain access to numerous color options, as well as superb sliders for sharing product images. Lighting Store is also WPML-ready, so it supports many languages. Moreover, you can use any of the 80+ shortcodes, and choose from over 600 Google fonts to customize the online shop's typography. Want to get 50% off LightingStore? Just insert coupon code "WOO" at the checkout. Hurry up, because the offer is only available until the 22nd of September.

Shopsy

Shopsy occupies a special place in my preferences. It places a lot of emphasis on animations, so you can use it to build extra friendly and compelling WooCommerce websites that will make your clients very happy, because their online stores are sure to become a tremendous success in a very short space of time. Shopsy is a cross-device responsive WordPress theme, and it is built on the most recent Bootstrap installment (3.0). With the help of its magnificent drag-and-drop functionality, designers are free to create as many templates and page-blocks as they please. Another wonderful thing about Shopsy is its association with Font-Awesome 4, which unlocks a high number of built-in icons. 

Music Store

Music Store from Crocoblock is yet another must-see WooCommerce theme. As the name clearly points out, this is a perfect website theme for music shops, which display artists' album covers, and their description or historical background. There is also plenty of space to add information related to pricings and similar products coming from other artists. You can go as far as you want when you're customizing the site design, because all images and PSD files are included in the same package. Check out Crocoblock for more cool WooCommerce themes. There are more than 90 templates and prices start as low as 60 cents per template.

SoCute

If you're looking to set up a good old-fashioned WooCommerce store, then go for SoCute and you will get the job done perfectly, and without any sort of complications. SoCute is, in other words, a minimalistic but beautiful theme, and will produce sleek-looking online stores for any occasion. In terms of layout, you are free to choose from thousands of options, and so come up with a website to your and your client's liking. You can check out the live demo, or try the free version of this theme, before you buy it.

Munditia

You absolutely have to check out Munditia. This theme includes, for an extra $15, the most coveted Premium plugin for WordPress websites: the Revolution Slider, which you can use in order to create fabulous slideshows. What's more, Munditia is also equipped with Zoom function, and AJAX loading, which can be turned on and off in the Admin Panel. The AJAX feature is particularly attractive, as clients can make a purchase straight from the product page. Last but not least, you can also enable Wishlists, for any potential customers who are planning to buy products later on. 

Crux

Crux is built on the StagFramework and will help you devise a juicy website that is easy to ‘digest' for potential buyers. It is effective, lightweight, and multilingual, as well as fully responsive and retina-ready. The Layerslider feature will help you make awesome sliders on the move, and you can also set as many sidebars as you wish. 

Wokey

I also need to mention WokeyStore in my list of superlative WooCommerce themes. This particular theme is rooted in a modern, neat design, which goes well with any niche your client happens to belong to. With the drag-and-drop content manager, you can apply custom background and color-per-row options. The mega menu plugin is also included. 

G-Shop

You may also want to consider using G-Shop. The first thing that sparked my interest concerning this specific theme was the fact that it has unlimited awesome presets with fabulous color combinations. The second thing was the wealthy documentation, which doesn't leave any room for confusion. Additionally, G-Shop is said to load fast, and to be cross-browser compatible.  

Perfectum

Perfectum does not fall short of its name. It's rooted in the most recent HTML5 and CSS 3 developments, and is also available for platforms like Magento and OpenCart. However, what I like best about this theme is the fact that it's 100% responsive, offers unlimited theme skins, and more than 200 patterns of colors to customize it however you can think of. 

Stylo

StyloTheme is just right for jewelry or accessories. It creates a fancy, but straightforward visual context for online customers to shop in. It's responsive, looks great on retina display devices, has unlimited color schemes, and is localization-ready with Google Maps integration. What's more, you can use the shortcode generator for any use. 

Casablanca

I wouldn't dream of ending my list without mentioning Casablanca, a wonderful and up-to-date WooCommerce theme. All in all, it comes across as full of grace and elegance, so you can use it to build shops that target the female population (clothing store, accessories, and cosmetics). And, bear in mind that Casablanca has a lovely full-width video option that adds intensity to product showcasing. 

Conclusion

The above-mentioned items are, to my knowledge, the very best choices a graphic/web designer could possibly make today. However, please be noted that this is a subjective study, and I'm fully aware that there are many other excellent options out there. The good news is that there is plenty of work to be done, so you will get the chance to try many of these themes for good measure.
