The Challenge

A gym brand needs more than
just a checkout.

Lone Wolf sells gym apparel, but a plain storefront gives members no reason to come back between purchases. The brand needed an app that turns everyday training into a habit - and a store into a community people belong to.

Where it broke downThree friction points
01

A store with no reason to return

A standalone shop is opened only when someone already wants to buy. There was no daily hook to keep the brand inside a member's routine.

02

No sense of community

Gym culture runs on belonging and accountability, but shopping was solitary - no pack, no leaders, no shared momentum to plug into.

03

Store, app and ops disconnected

Products, orders, community and rewards lived in separate places, with no single panel to run the whole operation from.

The Approach

From a storefront
to a daily ritual.

Shop, move, belong. We built one connected system: a React Native app on a Shopify store, a step-driven rewards loop, a member community and a React admin to run it all.

DiscoveryPhase 1

Map the member's day

We looked at how gym members shop, train and stay motivated - and where a brand can earn a place in the daily routine, not just the cart.

Deliverables

  • User journeys
  • Market research
  • Feature scoping

Commerce & RewardsPhase 2

Wire the store to a habit loop

We connected a Shopify catalog to the app and designed The Hunt - daily step missions that pay out Fangs, an in-app currency members earn, spend and show off.

Deliverables
  • Shopify integration
  • Fangs currency
  • Step tracking
  • Cart & checkout

Design Deep-Dive

A system built
to move with you.

A stripped-back monochrome identity - white, black and smoke with a single gold reward accent - carries shopping, step challenges and community without ever feeling busy.

Lone Wolf - wear the wild.

A sharp, geometric wolf mark paired with a hand-brushed wordmark - premium enough for apparel, bold enough to lead a gym feed.
