Shopify category attributes for Slippers

How to fill them
- Open the product in Shopify admin → Category → choose Slippers (or a more specific one).
- The category's attributes appear below it. Pick values that are true for the product — for example, the colors you actually sell.
- Only fill what you know. An empty attribute is better than a wrong one.
Many attributes are already in your store in another form: your variant options ("Color: Black, Olive") or words in your title and description ("100% cotton"). Listproof reads those and suggests the matching attribute values for you to approve — it never fills an attribute that isn't supported by your own product details.
