Optimize LCP Video Element
High Impact+15 points estimated
Why It Matters
Your LCP element is a video with preload='none' that delays content visibility, contributing to the poor 5.1s LCP score.
How to Fix
Add fetchpriority='high' to the hero video element in your Shopify theme's banner section. Change preload from 'none' to 'metadata' for faster loading. Consider replacing the video with an optimized WebP image for mobile devices using Shopify's responsive image features.

AI Performance Analysis
This Shopify site has poor performance with a score of 71/100, primarily due to excessive JavaScript execution time of 1.4 seconds that's blocking the page from loading quickly. The biggest issue is the slow Largest Contentful Paint of 5.1 seconds, caused by render-blocking CSS files and an enormous 17MB page size from large video files and unoptimized Instagram images. Key improvements include reducing unused JavaScript (253KB potential savings), optimizing the large video and image assets, and removing render-blocking resources to achieve faster loading times. The site also suffers from forced reflows and inefficient caching that further degrade the user experience.
Other Optimization Recommendations
Reduce JavaScript Execution Time
High Impact+18 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
JavaScript execution takes 1.4 seconds and blocks the main thread, directly hurting TBT by 200ms and preventing user interactions.
How to Fix:
Remove or defer unused JavaScript from Microsoft Clarity (340ms scripting time). Use Shopify's Script Tag API to load non-critical scripts asynchronously. Bundle and minify remaining JavaScript using Shopify CLI or webpack to reduce parse/compile time from 17ms.
Remove Render-Blocking CSS Resources
Medium Impact+8 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
Three CSS files block initial render for 320ms, delaying First Contentful Paint and hurting user experience.
How to Fix:
Inline critical CSS from base.css (16KB) directly in your Shopify theme's layout file. Use Shopify's asset_url filter with preload for non-critical CSS like swiper-bundle.css. Remove unused CSS rules (11KB wasted in base.css) using PurgeCSS or manual cleanup.
