We are looking to create something similar to Allbirds PDP where they have colorways listed as “classics” “limited edition” or “sale.” anyone have an idea of how to create this? Do you know if this is actioned through an app, their variants, or custom code?

Are you talking about the “Classics,” “Limited Edition,” and “Sale” setup? That’s usually done using product metafields. If the metafield is filled out, it gets rendered on the product page.

If you’re referring to the colorways, those are often handled with metafields too, either referencing a hex code or an image for the swatch. If each color is a separate product, you'd connect them using a product reference metafield. Either way, you'd need a bit of dev work to make it all show up cleanly on the page

any documentation you can share around how to setup “Classics,” “Limited Edition,” and “Sale” using metafields?

You’d need a developer to set up the grouping logic. Are you handling the development yourself? I can refer someone, I don’t own an agency or anything, but he’s helped implement product label setups for a few DTC brands I’ve project managed.

You can start with this blog post I wrote a few years ago. It should get you most of the way there but you’ll need to go into code to have the text directly next to the variant name. You might be able to add the metafield without code above the variant picker. You should also create a variant metafield as opposed to a product metafield in the blog post. Let me know if you have additional questions: https://plentifulcommerce.com/2022/04/26/how-to-use-metafields-in-shopify-for-non-tech-ecommerce-owners/
