New Premium WordPress Themes: May 2016 Edition

This is our roundup of the best new premium WordPress themes for May 2016.

We’ll be updating this post throughout the month with the best new theme releases from quality independent WordPress theme shops you can trust.

We may even list some themes from the theme marketplace websites if we find any outstanding and interesting ones. However it’s probably unlikely. Many themes you find on the marketplace websites might look nice but are bloated pieced of crap that will give you nothing but headaches down the track. So unless you really know what you’re doing it’s probably best to stick to a simple theme from an experienced and reputable WordPress theme developer.

Check out these quality WordPress themes below.
