Key US Online Apparel, Footwear, And Accessories Market Trends

Increasing adoption of omnichannel retailing is an emerging trend shaping market growth. Various domestic and international retailers have been incorporating omnichannel retailing across the supply chain in the US - online apparel, footwear, and accessories market. Omnichannel retailing provides an integrated shopping experience for consumers. Online shopping helps consumers save time when compared with physical purchases from stores. On the other hand, omnichannel retailing allows them to touch and feel products before purchasing. In the US, 64% of retailers are using the omnichannel retailing strategy.

For instance, J.C. Penny uses the omnichannel strategy that allows customers to buy online and pick up at stores. It has also created a cart function to provide a seamless shopping experience on multiple devices. Hence, the increasing adoption of omnichannel retailing is expected to be a positive trend for the growth of the US online apparel footwear and accessories market during the forecast period.

Major US Online Apparel, Footwear, And Accessories Market Challenge

Stringent government regulations on the manufacture of apparel, footwear, and accessories is a significant challenge hindering the market growth. The demand for leather as a premium raw material is high in the apparel, footwear, and accessories industry. In addition, the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) of the US regulates all children's products, including children's leather products, sold in the US. It includes apparel, footwear, toys, bags, wallets, and other leather goods for children. Third-party lab testing is mandatory for all children's products that are imported into the country. The importers also need to issue a Children's Product Certificate (CPC) for these products. CPC is a document that states the name of the company, applicable standards, address, and test results from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) approved testing company.

Additionally, the act impacted the retailers, manufacturers, and suppliers of leather products such as apparel, handbags, shoes, and belts. Such regulations and restrictions imposed on the leather industry increase the costs for the vendors of leather products and hinder their production processes. Currently, online retailers in the US need to collect tax from consumers if they have a physical presence in the consumer's state, thus hindering the growth of the US online apparel, footwear, and accessories market during the forecast period.
