The rising number of sports tournaments is notably driving the sports and fitness wear market growth, although factors such as the volatile raw material prices may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the sports and fitness wear industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Sports and Fitness Wear Market Driver
The rising number of sports tournaments is one of the key drivers supporting the sports and fitness wear market growth. The sports industry has experienced an upsurge in the number of tournaments. The growing interest of the population worldwide in sports activities can increase the sales of sports and fitness wear. For instance, the rise in the number of registered baseball players has led to an increasing number of baseball and softball tournaments and matches. For example, American Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament, which was first organized in 2014, is a college-level baseball conference championship tournament. Such tournaments will popularize baseball globally and benefit the global baseball equipment market. This, in turn, will drive the global sports and fitness wear market during the forecast period.
Key Sports and Fitness Wear Market Trend
Technological advances in sports and fitness wear is one of the key sports and fitness wear market trends that is contributing to the market growth. For instance, Nike features Advanced Innovation Kitchen technology in its tights. A thin polymer film on the tights helps in blocking UV light and infrared heat across the athletes' knees and shins, which are more affected by the sun. It features a compression system in its sports and fitness wear, which not only improves circulation but also prevents numbness and tingling in the legs after prolonged physical activities. Under Armour features CoolSwitch technology that is directly applied to its sports and fitness wear. It results in moisture absorption, which helps athletes to cool their bodies and fight the heat. Such technological advances will change customers' preferences towards buying these sports and fitness wear. This, in turn, will boost the market growth during the forecast period.
Key Sports and Fitness Wear Market Challenge
Volatile raw material prices is one of the factors hindering the sports and fitness wear market growth. The key market manufacturers, including Adidas, Nike, and PUMA, are experiencing fluctuations in their profit margins. This is due to the fluctuating prices of raw materials and the increasing competition among the vendors in the market. As the establishment costs are low, there is an increase in the influx of local players. The emergence of local players leads to price wars among the market competitors. This compels the vendors to reduce the prices of their products, which, in turn, will affect their profit margins. Therefore, the increasing price of raw materials negatively affects the profit margins of the vendors and thereby limiting the market growth.
