Rare

Rare is a Shopify theme by Theme Studio ($320). Tested on 2026-11-06 with Google Lighthouse via PageSpeed Insights on its own demo store, it scores 79 for mobile speed and 90 for desktop speed, 95/95 for SEO and 96/95 for accessibility (mobile/desktop, 0–100). Those are medians across its 5 tested presets; mobile speed across every tested page ranges from 67 to 95. Note: its demo home page is heavy — 35.2 MB — heavier than a typical store, so the speed score may understate the theme.
