WooCommerce variation swatches give store customers an easy way to toggle between different variations (e.g. colors). Instead of showing a long select field, you are able to show all variations directly by an image instead.<\/p>\n

If you sell wearable products like t-shirts or color customizable products of any kind, you need to add a WooCommerce variation swatch plugin to your store.
