It's a good theme, however the CSS and JavaScript it uses is expremely bulky and inefficient, which will slow a website down, and hurt SEO rankings.

I've been using Pixel union themes for better than 3years now, it's a stellar Theme thats well worth the investment. there's a huge amount of inbuilt versatility that allows tailoring the site to precisely your own design.

The theme itself is decent, but we've messaged Pixel Union support 3 times over the last few months for help with specific issues and they just point you to a third party who you have to pay to get some help. Shocking for the price tag of this theme. EDIT: I didn't ask you to improve our Google rankings, please don't lie to downplay my review. Your theme is the #1 issue slowing our site down.
Hi Nathan, We are happy to hear that you are enjoying Empire! Unfortunately, we are not able to help you with optimizing the third party apps you added to your theme. If you are looking to improve your Google rankings, we recommend reaching out to the third party apps, or you developer, to see if this is something they can assist with as this falls outside of theme support. Best, Pixel Union
