Images that follow these rules.
Herofab's background remover and product photography tools put footwear on a clean white or studio background. The shoe's angle comes from your photo, so for Amazon, photograph a single shoe facing left at 45 degrees.
Shoes, answered.
Which way should the shoe face on Amazon?
Left, at a 45-degree angle, showing a single shoe. Amazon applies the rule to all footwear.
Can shoes be shown on a model in Google Shopping?
In additional images, yes. Google asks for shoes to be shown alone in the main image.
Should the main image show the pair?
Not on Amazon: its product image guide asks for a single shoe.
