Start with the right split
Broad shopping and narrow shopping are not the same session.
If you are building outfits or scanning a whole wardrobe direction, begin wide. If you already know you need sneakers, a backpack, or a belt, start with the tighter lane and skip the detour.
Less guesswork
The first click should make the next one easier.
A useful page like this should help you decide where to go next without dumping a pile of random “best finds” in front of you.
Natural handoff
Findsindex makes more sense once your category is settled.
That is when the bigger catalog becomes helpful instead of noisy. You keep momentum because the next page already matches what you meant.
