Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 837 KiBAbout 837 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.
Main-thread work: 7.9 s
A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,747 HTML elements
The page has 3,747 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 53
53/100Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
750 ms · 207 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (207 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Amplitude Mobile Analytics, rebuyengine.com and Shopify and others), adding 1.5 MB and 783 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Improve image delivery
713 KiB4 images could be 713 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
500 ms · 113 KiBAbout 113 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
rebuyengine.com adds 218 ms
218 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 218 ms of main-thread work and 520 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 166 ms
166 msShopify costs a phone 166 ms of main-thread work and 394 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 111 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 111 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 211 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
Minify CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.9 MB in 499 requests
5.9 MBYour homepage downloads 5.9 MB in 499 requests on a phone: images 2.0 MB (39), scripts 1.6 MB (110) and other files 1.6 MB (316). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images far larger than shown
91 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example bf-2026-bestsellers-card.jpg at 1,200 px wide, shown at 345 px. Resized copies would save about 91 KiB.
About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit
1.66 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.66 g of CO₂e: 199.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (85 characters)
Your title is 85 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Elevated Tennis & Racket Sport Apparel for Performance and Lifestyle– Stack Athletics”.
3 H1 headlines
