Market Insight
Athleisure is a trend in fashion
in which clothes are designed for workouts and other athletic activities.
Athleisure wear is more comfortable than other types of clothing. Therefore,
people enjoy wearing it in their everyday lives. It can be even worn at the
workplace, school, or at other casual or social occasions. Some of the
athleisure outfits are yoga pants, sneakers, shorts, tights, and leggings.
Athleisure wear is useful in avoiding muscle sprains and other ligament &
muscle-related injuries, suitable fitting and proper support provided by these
clothes. Further, improvement of performance at the gym is a desire of every
fitness-follower. So, while burning calories of the body, the blood pumps
oxygen to the muscles, lactic acid builds up as an outcome, that frequently
causes pain, exhaustion, and cramping. Thus, the athleisure wear helps in the
stimulation of blood flow and hence, the production of lactic acid is reduced,
owing to which athleisure wear is preferred during gym workouts.
Growing consumer’s awareness
regarding fitness and growth in consumer’s income are driving the growth of the
athleisure market. Further, increasing participation of the old and youth
population in physical activities boosts the demand for the sports-related
products thus motivating market growth. Athleisure is generally worn to
project a sporty, casual and streetwear style, but the trend and market have
shifted towards fitness inspired fashion which means athleisure wear is
becoming well-integrated with fashion. On the other hand, growth in a number of
fake products is leading to safety & quality issues for consumers and brand
damage for key market players.
Besides, unstable cost of raw
materials and the high cost of designing lead to high cost of the final
product. So, the high cost of athleisure wear is resulting in decreasing sales
among price-sensitive consumers. Again, many organizations such as women’s
sports foundation, feminist majority foundation, box girls, and others are
taking women empowerment initiatives and running campaigns to promote sports
participation. This factor is further anticipated to provide growth
opportunities for the athleisure market. Additionally, growth in the use of
green textile and manufacturing of athleisure wear using sustainable methods is
likely to drive the growth of the market during the upcoming years.
Among the geographies, North
America has led the athleisure market followed by Europe region. The growth in
the trend of athleisure wear as casual and office wear is driving the growth of
North America region. Further, in the Europe region due to the high popularity
of sports events that increase participation and demand for fashion outfits.
This factor boosts the demand for athleisure wear in Europe region. Asia-Pacific
is likely to witness the highest growth rate for the athleisure market owing to
growth in participation of the youth population in sports activities and rise
in concerns towards health & wellness.
The Indian government is giving
huge importance to the fitness-driven lifestyle and are running several
campaigns and programs to boost the growth of the overall sports and fitness
industry along with the athleisure industry. The introduction of an
International Yoga Day and fitness trend by Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi
is one of the motivating factors. Such initiatives and campaigns may help to
escalate the growth of the athleisure market.
