Schema design for products with multiple variants/attributes? I'm using MySQL. The idea is similar to shopify with a different concept, so users are going to add their own products with multiple types of variants and attributes.

From all the research I've done this seems the most likely solution for me and I'm just wondering if there's anything wrong with the following schema and what are the upsides/downsides?

Thank you

Table: products
------------------------------
| ID | ProductName           |
|----------------------------| 
| 1  | Leather Wallet Case   |
| 2  | Jeans                 |
| 3  | Power Bank            |
