Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 644 KiBAbout 644 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.
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 534 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (534 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1.0 MB and 575 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
491 KiB19 images could be 491 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 178 ms
178 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 178 ms of main-thread work and 439 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.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 37 KiB37 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 33 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 33 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 125 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
53 KiBAbout 53 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 19.3 s
19.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 19.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.9 s
4.9 sThe first text or image appears after 4.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.9 s
4.9 sYour largest element takes 4.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Built for the runaround.”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.5 s).
Speed Index: 7.2 s
7.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 23% slower for real visitors
+23%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 101 ms to 125 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
7 images without width and height
7 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-1%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 60 ms
60 msScripts block the page for only 60 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 237 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 237 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (66), images 1,017 KiB (51) and other files 752 KiB (106). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
32 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example MO_AD_LIfestyle_Couple-Feature_x1024.jpg at 1,200 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 32 KiB.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.98 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.98 g of CO₂e: 117.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
43 tap targets too small
43 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
18 text elements with low contrast
18 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
8 images without alt text
8 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
7 links without text
7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (7 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 9 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (499 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.missionoutdoor.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
6 pages without a meta description
https://www.missionoutdoor.com/collections/womens, https://www.missionoutdoor.com/collections/mens, https://www.missionoutdoor.com/collections/tuko-swim-towels, https://www.missionoutdoor.com/pages/about, https://www.missionoutdoor.com/pages/become-a-dealer and https://www.missionoutdoor.com/pages/dealer-resources have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
3 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 3 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.missionoutdoor.com/collections/cassi-gear-totes/products/cassi-beach-tote, whose canonical is https://www.missionoutdoor.com/products/cassi-beach-tote. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
