The hero image is the star
Real product photography, a rendered mockup or a composed collage. Stock photos of people using laptops are the named anti-pattern — they say nothing the headline did not.

Import
How to import this template into Klaviyo, step by step.
The download is a single HTML file. Here is where it goes in Klaviyo, what the platform expects, and which tags are already wired up.
- Open Content, then Templates, in the Klaviyo sidebar.
- Choose Import and upload the downloaded HTML file.
- Name the template and save it.
- Replace every placeholder before you send — image sources, link targets, product and price copy, the sender name and the footer address. Klaviyo’s editor handles copy and images inline, or edit the HTML directly and re-import.
- Attach it to a campaign, or to a flow email, when you build the send.
Editing Klaviyo opens an imported HTML template in its own editor. Copy and images are editable there, and the underlying structure stays as generated, so the layout does not drift between sends.
Watch for Klaviyo rejects an import that carries no unsubscribe tag. This template already wraps {% unsubscribe_link %} in its footer link, so it imports as-is — if you rebuild the footer, keep that tag.
Swapping the placeholder images
Klaviyo opens an imported template in its own editor, so the images can be swapped there without touching the HTML. Upload yours to Klaviyo first, then point each image block at it. Editing the file before you import works too — Klaviyo keeps whatever src it is given.

width="600">How to use it
When to send this product-launch email, and what to change first.
When to send it
Send this as a campaign, timed to the moment the drop is actually buyable. A launch email that lands before the collection page goes live burns the click. The usual audience is the full engaged list — everyone who has opened or clicked in the last few months — with a VIP segment given a head start if you run one.
What to change first
Kinetic is the placeholder brand, sitting in the header, the footer and the copyright line. The hero reads “Move without limits” and the flagship block under it sells “Flagship Aero Leggings”, so both need your real drop and your real lead product. The numbered stat bar carries 01 sweat-wicking, 02 squat-proof and 03 4-way stretch: keep only the claims your fabric can back. The 3-up grid holds three images and names: Aero Crop, Aero Legging and Aero Tank. Point every “Shop the Aero drop” button at the live collection instead of example.com/sale, then swap “Example address” for your postal address.
The craft
What makes a product launch email worth sending.
One CTA, placed twice
A single dominant action in the hero, repeated once mid-email. Three to five modules across three or four zones is the whole shape.
Celebrate the product, not the buyer
Specs in a stat bar, the "what it is" story in a full-width feature block, external validation in a press or logo bar if you have it. Copy stays on the thing you built.

Questions
Klaviyo template questions, answered.
Can I use this template in a Klaviyo flow, or only a campaign?
Both. An imported template is available to any campaign or flow email you build afterwards. The trigger and the timing are configured on the flow itself, not in the template.
Do I need a paid Klaviyo plan to import a custom HTML template?
No. Template import is available on Klaviyo’s free tier, which covers up to 250 profiles. Removing Klaviyo’s own footer branding is the paid-plan feature, not the import.
How is a launch email different from an announcement?
A launch is cinematic and image-led, built around a product you can show. An announcement is typographic — the headline carries it, and there is no hero image at all.
Does Activewear product drop launch — Klaviyo hold up in dark mode and Outlook?
Every zone sets its background twice — once as a bgcolor attribute and once as an inline background-color — which is the pattern that survives dark-mode inversion in clients that repaint backgrounds.
The “Shop the Aero drop” button is a bulletproof VML button, so Outlook on Windows draws a real filled button instead of collapsing it to a bare text link.
The layout is a 600px table backbone with a mobile breakpoint, and the CSS is already inlined for the clients that strip style blocks.
