Accessibility at Vagabond Apparel Boutique
We want customers, including people with disabilities, to be able to access information, browse our collections and shop at Vagabond Apparel Boutique. We are working to improve the accessibility and usability of our online store for people who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, magnification and other assistive technology.
Our approach to accessibility
We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA as a reference for our ongoing accessibility work. These guidelines inform how we review navigation, page structure, images, interactive controls and the shopping experience.
Accessibility is an ongoing process. We do not claim that every page, feature or third-party component is fully accessible or will work without difficulty with every combination of browser, device and assistive technology.
Recent accessibility work
Our development and accessibility teams have completed internal implementation and testing work addressing the findings in our accessibility audit. The work has included:
- Disabling automatic advancement of the homepage slideshow.
- Adjusting the text alternative for a decorative homepage image to avoid an unnecessary screen-reader announcement.
- Improving keyboard focus handling when opening the Shop navigation menu.
- Improving the heading structure of footer content, product descriptions and related-product sections.
- Using list markup to communicate the grouping of footer payment icons.
- Adding an explicit Apply filters control and improving focus and status handling when product results update.
- Synchronizing the Filter button's expanded state with the visibility of the filter panel.
- Adding status-message handling for successful additions to the cart.
At the time of this update, theme-specific changes are saved in an unpublished theme and are awaiting independent verification before publication. Product-description heading updates were made in shared product content. The internal review does not mean that every possible accessibility barrier has been identified or eliminated.
Verification and continuing improvements
We have requested a verification review by the team responsible for the original audit. We plan to review any feedback, address remaining barriers identified within the reviewed areas and repeat relevant checks after the updated theme is published.
Our review process considers the browsing and shopping journey, including the homepage, collection pages, product options, cart and checkout. Automated checks are one part of the process and do not replace keyboard and assistive-technology testing.
Report an accessibility difficulty
If you have difficulty using our website, accessing information or completing a shopping task, please email info@vagabondapparel.com.
To help us investigate, please include:
- The address of the page where the difficulty occurred.
- What you were trying to do and what happened.

Shopping assistance
You can also contact us if you need help accessing product information, understanding size or color options, or using a shopping feature. We will work with you to understand the difficulty and explore available assistance.
Third-party content and services
Some features of our online store are provided by third parties, including payment and other shopping services. Their accessibility and behavior can vary. If you experience a difficulty with a third-party feature, please let us know so that we can investigate and explore available assistance.
Statement updates
We intend to review this statement as our accessibility work progresses. Descriptions of testing, outstanding work and deployment status should reflect the latest completed review.
