Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 243 KiBAbout 243 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Main-thread work: 5.3 s
A phone's processor spends 5.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 763 KiB6 images could be 763 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 206 KiB12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (206 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 92 KiBAbout 92 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Klaviyo adds 269 ms
269 msKlaviyo costs a phone 269 ms of main-thread work and 638 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and Hubspot and others), adding 1,019 KiB and 444 ms of main-thread time.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 231 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).
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 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.
