The Challenge
411 Fight Wear is a premier brand for BJJ and MMA gear. However, their growth was being stifled by a legacy PrestaShop architecture that was rigid and difficult to maintain.
Technical Debt
Daily operations like inventory updates required developer intervention, slowing down the marketing team.
Mobile Friction
The old site wasn't optimized for the 70% of traffic coming from Instagram ads on mobile devices.
The Impulsebyte Solution
We didn't just move data; we rebuilt the engine. The migration to WordPress/WooCommerce provided the flexible foundation the client needed.
01. Data Integrity First
We wrote custom scripts to migrate complex variable products (Gis with sizing/colors) and customer order history to ensure zero data loss.
02. "Train-Grow-Evolve" UX
We redesigned the navigation to focus on rapid discovery, splitting collections into distinct Men, Women, and "Gentle Art" (BJJ) categories.
03. Performance Tuning
Implemented a lightweight theme structure and localized caching to ensure sub-2-second load times across India.
The Result
The client now has full autonomy over their store, easily managing stock and processing orders without needing a developer for day-to-day tasks. The new site offers a smoother, faster browsing experience that perfectly reflects the grit and discipline of the martial arts community.
