Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 310 KiBAbout 310 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
5,448 HTML elements
The page has 5,448 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Help Scout and others), adding 1.1 MB and 873 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 522 KiB12 images could be 522 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Shopify adds 690 ms
690 msShopify costs a phone 690 ms of main-thread work and 603 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.
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 319 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 39 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 52 KiBAbout 52 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
11 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (11 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
11 KiB11 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
9 KiB9 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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: 6.7 MB in 279 requests
6.7 MBYour homepage downloads 6.7 MB in 279 requests on a phone: images 4.6 MB (60), scripts 994 KiB (95) and other files 895 KiB (110). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
RainCaper_Collection_Image_RC-M61_Front_600x800_f9d859aa-d2b 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).
About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit
1.89 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.89 g of CO₂e: 226.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

Accessibility
25 text elements with low contrast

Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
41 links without text
41 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
5 form fields without a label

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 437 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
