How to Add Multiple Sides For a Product?

In Custy you can add and customize multiple sides of a product (Front, Back, sleeves, inside tag, and so on) so shoppers get a complete design experience in the Design Lab.

Why use multiple sides?

Use multiple sides when shoppers should decorate more than one face of the product.
