North America’s Women’s Footwear Sales to Cross US$ 50 Bn Next Year

According to a newly published market intelligence by Future Market Insights, North America remains the largest regional shareholder in the global revenue of women’s footwear landscape, and will possibly exceed the valuation of US$ 50 billion in 2019. Asia Pacific and Western Europe are the next key markets for manufacturers and distributors of women’s footwear, according to the study.

Developed regional markets are estimated for sluggish growth in sales in coming years, whereas emerging economies continue to experience steadily growing sales owing to rapidly evolving consumer demographics and elevating spending power.

Women’s Footwear Fashion Is Becoming Sporty and Casual

With lifestyle gaining a ‘healthier’ tag and regular dress codes becoming relaxed and casual, it is most likely that sporty, comfortable, and casual women’s footwear will maintain the top selling position in market.  

A senior research analyst expert in the consumer retail segment explains, “Casual and sports shoes are gaining ground in recent years, according to the report. The sales of women’s footwear in the sports shoes category currently account for around 30% share of the total market value. Adhering to the consumer priority to comfort, sports shoes and casual shoes remain the top selling categories in women’s footwear. Around 30% share of the total market value belongs to sports shoes, closely followed by casual shoes. Moreover, heels & pumps, and boots will continue to account for a considerably high revenue share in the market in 2019 and ahead”.

Revenue growth of athletic footwear reflect continued dominance of sports shoes in women’s footwear marketplace, whereas significantly growing sales of sneakers denote exceptional sales potential of the casual shoes category. Conversely, research indicates passive growth in the high heels category sales.

With consumers perceiving casual and sports shoes as the sensible footwear over heels, it is more likely that brands such as Nike, Adidas, and Puma will continue to enjoy massive revenue over coming years.

Other popular brands are taking constant efforts in introducing competitively priced products in the market with an objective to extend their outreach to developing economies.

Both Consumers and Manufacturers Are Going Online

In terms of sales distribution, more than a third of the total market value is covered by multi-brand stores, followed by third party online sales. While supermarkets/hypermarkets and specialty stores also bring in a relatively heavy share of revenue to the women’s footwear market, the report projects solid incremental growth for third party online sales of women’s footwear.

Technological intervention has been redefining the consumption of fashion products and the strategic efforts of companies to deliver engaging brands. Impressively growing Ecommerce penetration is majorly influencing the current performance of sales channels in the women’s footwear landscape.

Even multi-brand stores are likely to lose ground to online selling brands, as modern consumers are increasingly preferring a convenient lifestyle - translating into promising growth of Internet retailing/E-tailing channels for distribution of lifestyle products such as footwear and apparel. However, research also points to a growing consumer tendency to favor non-store online retail channels over online brand stores.

Manufacturers and distributors are also harnessing the profit of operating only online rather than investing manifolds in offline businesses. To add to this, the analyst at the company highlights that the in-store experience will continue to be the ultimate factor shaping consumer demand in the women’s footwear market – whether offline or online.

Several footwear manufacturers also continue to invest in merging offline and online for an improved consumer engagement at distinct levels. FMI even foresees that in the near future, the entire footwear distribution scenario may transition to a symbiotic space that does not distinguish between the boundaries of offline and online.
