Deep Dive 11 minutes PremiumMarket Trends in US and European Footwear Coresight Research July 7, 2017 Executive Summary In the US and in European countries, athleisure and health and wellness trends buoyed footwear sales growth in 2016. Nike, Adidas, Puma and JD Sports Fashion all posted double-digit percentage sales growth rates in their latest respective fiscal year results. Trends in the footwear market closely mirror those of the apparel fashion market in that specialty footwear retailers in the US and the UK that offer sports-inspired footwear styles are thriving. We expect global footwear sales will be driven by the continuation of athleisure and healthy lifestyle trends, the rise of e-commerce, product innovation and the evolving opportunities provided by 3D printing and customization, as well as Amazon’s continued penetration of the apparel and footwear categories.
