Very good theme, the modular direction is great. I noticed a rendering bug, not sure if it's been reported yet: occasionally, when using transparent .webp images in Safari (iOS/MacOS), the second product image bleeds through or overlaps the first image when 'Show second image on hover' or 'Show carousel' is enabled.

I've been using Vessel for a while. But since the update to 3.2.1 my menu is not working correct anymore. It was before text but now it is jumping to a hamburger menu. It is not working properly.
Hello. Thank you for your feedback and for sharing the specific features you miss from the Dawn theme. We’ll pass your request for more control over the blog template and product card image shapes to our developers. Regarding the hero banner, it is designed to focus on the content rather than adapting to the first image. For flexibility based on images, we recommend using the slideshow section.
