The athletic footwear market was valued at $109.7 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $165.0 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2020 to 2030.

Athletic footwear refers to those shoes that are designed for sports and other outdoor activities. The global consumption volume indicates a trend of these being used as casual and fashion footwear by people of all age groups. The market offers a variety of footwear with options in color, design, and price to cater to the needs and purchasing abilities of individual customers. The athletic footwear market is highly competitive with players making huge investments in marketing and brand building to differentiate themselves and attract more number of players. There are numerous small players that offer tough competition to the global athletic footwear giants, primarily in developing markets.

Large population size, coupled with rising disposable income is among the major factors that boost demand for high-end footwear in developing markets. Increase in sales through online channels, innovative product launches, attractive marketing, and promotional strategies are other factors that propel the overall growth of the athletic footwear market. Increasing environmental concerns and rising prices of raw materials are the major challenges for players operating in the market. However, the market is anticipated to unfold attractive business opportunities, owing to changing consumer lifestyles and increasing penetration of online retailing.

Consumers are becoming more health conscious due to work-related stress and lifestyle disorders. Thus, increase in number of health-conscious consumers has created a strong demand for athletic sportswear and footwear, which, in turn, augments growth of the overall market. Moreover, rise in trend of fashionable sports apparel propels growth of the athletic footwear market. Furthermore, continuous innovations in sportswear and footwear notably contributes toward growth of the market. For instance, Adidas launched electronic-enabled shoes (smart shoe) that exhibit shock-absorbing feature depending on body weight, running style, speed, and running surface.

However, increase in inclination of kids toward indoor leisure activities is expected to hamper growth of the market during the forecast period. On the contrary, increase in participation of women in sports is anticipated to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of athletic sportswear and footwear market in the future.

Availability of fake and low-priced products restrict growth of the market. Sportswear and footwear by renowned brands have a high price range, which are not affordable by lower income groups. Hence, local suppliers design the same style products at comparatively lower costs. Such products are of low quality and hamper brand image of forerunners in the market, thereby limiting sales of original products. Availability of counterfeit or low-quality sportswear and footwear restricts sales of branded products, thus threatening growth of the athletic footwear market.
