Render-blocking requests
1.1 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Main-thread work: 4.1 s
A phone's processor spends 4.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
750 ms · 406 KiB10 images could be 406 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (loox.io, POWr and Klaviyo and others), adding 954 KiB and 939 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 69
69/100Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
650 ms · 285 KiB21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (285 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 171 KiBAbout 171 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
loox.io adds 276 ms
276 msloox.io costs a phone 276 ms of main-thread work and 17 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
2,222 HTML elements
The page has 2,222 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 158 ms
158 msKlaviyo costs a phone 158 ms of main-thread work and 345 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Shopify adds 89 ms
89 msShopify costs a phone 89 ms of main-thread work and 351 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 12 KiBAbout 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Duplicated JavaScript
100 ms · 34 KiB34 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 82 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
50 ms · 25 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 25 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.7 MB in 366 requests
3.7 MBYour homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 366 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (35), other files 1.1 MB (182) and scripts 1.0 MB (120). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
TI-3P_-_-100g-2.3-Open-2.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image in older formats
1 image (73 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.05 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.05 g of CO₂e: 126.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
