Running Apparel Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The growing online sales of running apparel is notably driving the running apparel market growth, although factors such as inconsistent raw material prices may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the running apparel industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Running Apparel Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the global running apparel market growth is the growing online sales of running apparel. Consumers are adopting online shopping in developed countries of areas such as North America and Europe. The emerging countries of APAC and the MEA are also expected to make significant contributions to the global market revenue. Competitive prices, convenience, heavy discounts, cash on delivery(COD) options, and fast-delivery services are factors attracting consumers to shop online. Nike Inc., Adidas AG, Under Armour Inc., and ASICS Corp. have their own web portals, which boosts the online sales of vendors. In addition, vendors such as Nike plan to concentrate specifically on their online businesses considering the changing consumer buying patterns. Moreover, in 2021, e-commerce became the primary distribution channel for Adidas AG. Furthermore, in July 2021, Puma SE announced the opening of a new digital-enabled store in Bengaluru, India. Such factors will drive the growth of the concerned market during the forecast period.

Key Running Apparel Market Trend

Digital and social media marketing is one of the key running apparel market trends that is expected to impact the industry positively in the forecast period. To compete in this intensely competitive market, manufacturers must develop, market, and promote their sports apparel through interactions with consumers on social media platforms. Consumers are engaged by market players using their innovative marketing campaigns on social media and digital platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube, and Twitter. Nike frequently uses such platforms to highlight social messages such as women's empowerment and tries to promote sports participation through advertisements aired on digital media and other social media platforms. For instance;

  • Companies such as Adidas AG, New Balance Athletics Inc., and Skechers USA Inc. have a significant presence on Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, and Facebook.
  • Skechers USA Inc. currently has approximately 47,500 followers on Twitter, and Nike has almost 9.1 million followers on the same social media platform. 

Key Running Apparel Market Challenge

One of the key challenges to the global running apparel market growth is the inconsistent raw material prices. As the establishment costs are low, an influx of local players has been observed in recent times. The price wars among competitors propel the global vendors to reduce their products' prices, thereby minimizing their profit margins. The prices of raw materials like cotton and natural fabrics are directly affected by foreign currency changes. Manufacturers find it difficult to anticipate spending or control costs due to price fluctuations. In addition, cost-driven end-users prefer low-cost running apparel rather than investing heavily in global brands. Such factors may limit the market growth during the forecast period.

This running apparel market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
