The rising demand for exclusive designer collections is notably driving market growth. Limited edition designer luxury footwear collections are made of high-quality materials. Consumers prefer the aesthetics of materials such as leather, textiles, and synthetics and are willing to pay a premium for such luxury footwear. Footwear such as leather shoes, moccasins, and stilettos for women, which are launched under exclusive designer labels, attract consumers across the world. The increasing number of fashion shows, trade exhibitions, and trade fairs motivates the manufacturers of designer collections to launch their new products or collections.
Further, companies have also introduced footwear that is designed for women. The collection of luxury footwear is made of strong materials, which can sustain wear and tear. The launch of exclusive designer collections will positively influence the purchasing behavior of consumers. Therefore, owing to such factors, the market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
Increasing demand for customized luxury footwear is an emerging trend shaping market growth. The customization of luxury footwear is an emerging trend among target customers. Customization is available for various types of footwear. Emerging countries, such as China and India, are also experiencing a growing demand for customized premium goods, including premium footwear. In the premium segment, the leading vendors offer customized products that have an aesthetic appeal. The extent of personalization can vary from design, logo, color, and buckles to embroidery or adding names.
For instance, Nike, one of the key vendors, offers customized shoes under its segment called Nike By You. This allows customers to customize their shoes in terms of the color of the shoe, the design of the shoe sole, and the printing of custom text. The advent of the customization of luxury footwear globally complements market growth through new purchases. Thus, the customization of footwear is expected to increase the revenues of luxury footwear manufacturers during the forecast period. Therefore, all such factors will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Rising labor costs and fluctuating raw material prices of luxury footwear a significant challenges hindering the market growth. Several international vendors have their production facilities or original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in Asian countries, such as China, India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Vietnam. This is due to the availability of low-cost manufacturing and the low cost of operations in these countries. However, in the last decade, the cost of labor in these countries rose rapidly, which increased the cost of production. Evolving and dynamic economic conditions have also adversely affected the cost of labor in countries from which the vendors import their supplies. Therefore, the rising cost of production for the manufacturers lowers their profit margins.
Additionally, the transportation costs incurred by companies include taxes, duties, and fuel costs. A major portion of the transportation cost incurred by the companies is the cost of fuel, which fluctuates frequently. An increase in transportation costs increases the cost of end products. However, since the market is highly competitive, this intense competition prevents the vendors from increasing the prices of their end-products, which reduces their profit margins. Therefore, fluctuating prices of raw materials and increasing labor costs may restrain the growth of the market during the forecast period.
