01 · Accessibility summary

Evolize inspected 5 public pages on xcelwetsuits.com and detected 84 accessibility findings. The most widespread issue was "Text has insufficient colour contrast", detected on 5 inspected pages. The most affected inspected page was "/", where 61 findings were detected. The assessment identified findings mapped to 7 WCAG success criterions. The sections below prioritize the broadest issues and provide technical evidence for each detected finding.

02 · Start here

These findings combine the highest severity and broadest reach detected during this assessment.

  1. High

    Interactive controls are not keyboard-accessible

    WCAG 2.1.1 (A) · 5 inspected pages · 70 instances
    Why this matters

    A control that responds to clicks (a clickable element or an ARIA widget) cannot receive keyboard focus, so keyboard and switch users cannot operate it.

    Recommended action

    Use a native <button>/<a>, or add tabindex="0" plus keyboard event handlers (Enter/Space) to custom controls.

    View technical evidence →
  2. High

    Hidden elements can still receive keyboard focus

    WCAG 2.4.3 (A) · 5 inspected pages · 15 instances
    Why this matters

    An element is not visible but remains in the tab order, so a sighted keyboard user loses track of focus when it lands there.

    Recommended action

    Keep this element out of the tab order while its containing region is hidden — remove it from focus (for example tabindex="-1"), or apply the inert attribute to the hidden container where supported. Restore normal focusability when the region becomes visible.

    View technical evidence →
  3. High

    IDs used in ARIA and labels must be unique

    WCAG 4.1.2 (A) · 5 inspected pages · 15 instances
    Why this matters

    IDs used in ARIA and labels must be unique

    Recommended action

    Review the affected element and correct the reported accessibility issue.

    View technical evidence →
  4. High

    Text has insufficient colour contrast

    WCAG 1.4.3 (AA) · 5 inspected pages · 10 instances
    Why this matters

    Text and background colours do not meet the minimum contrast ratio, reducing legibility.

    Recommended action

    Increase the contrast ratio to at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text.

    View technical evidence →
  5. High

    Modal dialog does not trap keyboard focus

    WCAG 2.4.3 (A) · 5 inspected pages · 5 instances
    Why this matters

    An open modal leaves the content behind it keyboard-focusable, so keyboard and screen reader users can tab out of the dialog into hidden page content.

    Recommended action

    While a modal is open, confine focus to the dialog and mark the rest of the page inert (or aria-hidden). Restore focus on close.

06 · About this assessment

Evolize inspects publicly accessible website pages using automated browser-based testing and deterministic accessibility rules. Automated testing can identify many reproducible technical issues but cannot determine complete WCAG or legal compliance.

  • Publicly accessible surfaces only — no credentials, private systems, or source-code access.
  • Findings apply to the pages and states successfully inspected; automated analysis may not detect every issue.
  • Results reflect the site at the scan date and may have changed since.

Evolize provides digital risk intelligence and does not provide legal advice, certify compliance, or guarantee that litigation will not occur. Methodology · Security · Example assessment

07 · Continuous monitoring

This public report captures one assessment. Evolize monitoring rescans the website, detects new and recurring findings, tracks changes over time and verifies corrections.
