Market Growth Factors

Technological Advancements and Product Innovation

The athletic footwear industry in Brazil has benefited through cushioning systems developed, midsoles responded and breathable textiles provided comfort, stability and durability. Top brands invested a lot in research and development. Their athletic shoes are lightweight, adaptive and biomechanically accurate. Technological advances include smart manufacturing, 3D modeling and precision prototyping of ergonomics, fit and durability. Sustainable footwear, made from recycled, renewable or responsibly sourced materials is becoming a growing trend. The application of new traction and shock absorption technologies to engineering precision and design techniques has improved both their effectiveness and their aesthetics.

Expansion of Sports Participation and Organized Fitness Infrastructure

Investing more in public recreation centers, stadiums, fitness studios, and community centers drives participation in organized sports activities. This, in turn, demands that footwear performs in technical athletics and meets needs of different sports. This focuses on aspects for safety, durability, biomechanics, and athletic performance. Some of these factors include educational campaigns, fitness events, and wellness initiatives for promotion of active lifestyles as a social norm and increase of the adoption of performance-driven footwear across various demographics.

Influence of Digital Retail and E-Commerce Growth

The growth of e-commerce marketplaces and greater awareness of mobile shopping provide consumers with high-end footwear, product variety, authentication, and price comparison. Growth in logistics, security, and online payment processes are providing shorter delivery times and greater trust in online shopping by consumers. Retailers have taken up analytics for targeted advertising, product recommendations, virtual fitting, and online shopping augmentation. Retailers are moving toward an omnichannel strategy providing a smooth experience.
