Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.5 s · 473 KiBAbout 473 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.0 s · 156 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (156 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 59
59/100Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and iubenda and others), adding 1.2 MB and 703 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 348 ms
348 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 348 ms of main-thread work and 519 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: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 872 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,636 HTML elements
The page has 1,636 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 121 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
90 ms · 19 KiB19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Reduce unused CSS
29 KiBAbout 29 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Improve image delivery
19 KiB1 image could be 19 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

SEO
Title is short (29 characters)
Your title is only 29 characters: “RICK OWENS | OFFICIAL WEBSITE”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
16 links crawlers can't follow
16 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
103 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 103 pages on rickowens.eu and 0 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 148 characters
Your meta description is 148 characters: “SHOP THE LATEST RICK OWENS MENSWEAR, WOMENSWEAR, UNISEX, SHOES AND ACCESSORIES NOW ON THE OFFICIAL RICK OWENS STORE WIT…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Logo Logo”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.rickowens.eu/.
Open Graph tags complete

robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.rickowens.eu/sitemap.xml.
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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.rickowens.eu/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
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 (1,448 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
https://www.rickowens.eu/collections/women-rick-owens has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
4 pages share a meta description
https://www.rickowens.eu/collections/new-arrivals-women-all, https://www.rickowens.eu/collections/womens-all, https://www.rickowens.eu/collections/womens-outerwear and https://www.rickowens.eu/collections/womens-dresses use the same meta description.
