In addition, you have the T-Shirt product available in different colors as well. You will add a product variation called “Shirt Size” and another variation called “Shirt Color”. Both can be either radio buttons or a select drop down menu.

Then you will create options under Checkout > Variation Options for your two product variations. For “Shirt Size”, you will create four options – one for each size – and give them prices if you wish. For “Shirt Color” you can create an option for each different color available and also add prices if you have to.
