Sports Sites: New UX Benchmark with 2,600+ Performance Scores and 2,200+ Best Practice Examples

At Baymard we’ve just released a new UX benchmark of Sports Gear & Equipment sites, thereby expanding our existing Sports Gear & Equipment benchmark with 5 new UX case studies.

This follows from our large-scale user testing research on Sports Gear & Equipment sites and adds to our existing e-commerce UX benchmark.

5 New Sports Gear & Equipment UX Case Studies

The 5 sites added to our Sports Gear & Equipment benchmark have been manually assessed across 500+ research-based UX parameters relevant to Sports Gear & Equipment sites, resulting in 2,600+ weighted UX performance scores and 2,200+ worst and best practice examples.

For the benchmark, we rated 5 new Sports Gear & Equipment sites (bringing our total for the Sports Gear & Equipment benchmark to 10 sites): Hibbett, Backcountry, SportChek, Academy, and Evo.
