One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 69
69/100Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 92 KiBAbout 92 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
500 ms · 98 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (98 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
350 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
1,538 HTML elements
The page has 1,538 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 203 KiB9 images could be 203 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 24 KiBAbout 24 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.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 256 KiB and 46 ms of main-thread time.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 51 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
2 checks passed

Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

33.6 MBYour homepage downloads 33.6 MB in 167 requests on a phone: media 31.2 MB (3), images 841 KiB (32) and other files 650 KiB (70). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

9.51 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 9.51 g of CO₂e: 1141.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
