Flex prides itself in being the ‘most customizable Shopify theme' – and they put their money where their mouth is!

Flex gives you full control over the look and feel of your store.

To fully understand how Flex is different to other themes, let's check out how Shopify themes work.

How do Shopify themes work?

When you install your theme it comes with a CSS file created by your theme developer that provides a lot of that functionality and styling that you can simply toggle. When you're in the theme making customizations in Shopify like adjusting templates, sections and blocks, those controls that you're moving around such as specifying a font size is actually affecting the CSS file that that theme is generated for you. Now back to the Flex theme. Flex has a ton of templates, it has a lot of sections, and it provides a lots of control. 

You can select various font sizes, button colors, spacing and margins and animation settings. With the Flex theme, we now get a lot more control than with any other theme in a Shopify store. You can also choose to specify these at the template level, at the section level, or at the block level. Whatever theme you're using currently when you open it up in theme customization, you'll find a menu that gives you, let's say five or ten different options that you're making decisions on to adjust the layout of the page. When using Flex, that amount of options will easily be doubled or tripled.
