Collection list: Text

Instead of emphasizing images, this layout highlights collection names, short descriptions, and product counts — perfect for minimalist stores or catalog-style pages. You can adjust spacing, width, text alignment, colors, and background styling to align with your theme’s overall design. It’s ideal for presenting multiple collections with consistent typography and simple navigation.
