Rising Health Consciousness and Increasing Participation in Sports and Fitness Stoked Demand 

Majorly fuelling the growth of the functional apparel market is rising demand for high-performance, application-specific apparels and footwear coupled with the rising participation in sports and fitness activities. Functional apparels manufactured using advanced technology are usually made of polyester fabric or microfiber that absorbs sweat from the body on the fabric's surface, from where it is evaporated. These apparels thus help athletes to stay dry and comfortable.

The rising interest in sports and fitness activities over the past couple of years is a key factor driving the functional apparel market. Changing fashion trends and rise in the number of working women will stimulate the demand for non-athletic footwear. Further, the growing awareness of importance of health and fitness is likely to stir the demand for sportswear and footwear in the upcoming years. Increasing inclination of individuals towards fitness is encouraging them to get involved in gym or personal training activities so as to remain healthy and active in daily life. Worldwide, work-related stress and consumption of high-calorie food has aroused health consciousness among individuals. Individuals have become selective about apparels they wear for gym sessions, personal training, and even casual work.

The trend is likely to be prevalent in developed regions. The strong presence of some major players also account for prominence of developed regions such as North America and Europe.
