Image Requirements

Your product images must meet certain technical and style requirements. Failure to meet the requirements can result in the suspension of your seller account.

Please ensure your images meet our requirements. Each image must be:

• On a pure white background.
• A color photograph.
• Devoid of any borders, watermarks, text or other decoration.
• At least 1001 pixels on its longest side. This allows customers to zoom in on your product image, which provides a detailed look and may reduce returns and negative feedback.
• Showing only one shoe when listing in the Shoes sub-category.
• Showing the entire product, occupying at least 85% of the image area.
• Showing the shoe at a three-quarters view, from slightly above, with the toe of the shoe facing right or left when listing in the Shoes sub-category.
• Of the product alone - no accessories, models or mannequins.
• Showing a single view of the product - no alternate angles or close-ups.

For bundled products, it is not necessary to show the entire lot. A single image of the product is appropriate. For the main image for child products, ensure that the image represents the actual child product being listed. For example, if you are listing different colors of the same product, provide a child image that represents the color of the specific variation.

Do not use or include the following in product images:

• Product packaging or temporary tags not intended to be left on the handbag after purchase.
• Second hand or slightly used products.
• Borders, watermarks, text, or other decorations.
• Sketches or drawings of the product. Use photographic images only.
• Colored backgrounds or lifestyle pictures.
• Mannequins.
• Other products, items, or accessories that are not part of the product listing. Only include exactly what the customer is buying.
• Image place holders (for example, temporary images or "no image available" text).
• Multiple products.
• Graphs of product ratings.
• Promotional text such as "sale" or "free ship" (use Promotions instead).
