Now seems a good time to revisit “Sustainability” in the Footwear and Apparel industries. We’ve seen articles questioning brands’ commitments to it (see below), and recent visits to Industry Trade shows left us with the firm impression that brands haven't been requesting as many new sustainable innovations as in the past. Instead, they are focusing on tried and true "value" materials and not pushing for anything that may add cost. We want to know your thoughts. Is “Sustainability” on hold in our industry? https://lnkd.in/enrRf6K9 #footwear #apparel #supplychain #zefyrexperts

The global footwear market is expected to reach $588.22 billion by 2030, with a projected growth rate of 4.3% CAGR. That was the starting point of a recent meeting with a well-known brand. The goal? Preparations for 2030. You heard me right—2030 is just around the corner. And like time itself, it’s the con we can never catch. It’s constantly slipping through our hands, moving faster than we expect. But here’s the thing: if your brand is set to thrive in the future, you can’t wait for time to catch you. You must stay ahead of the curve. What actions does your company take to be fully ready for market evolution? #footwear #apparel #advertising #marketing #performanceadvertising

What do you think will be the next must-have footwear style/brand? This week, two telling reports were released, indicating that the marketplace is primed for the next big footwear trend. The first is StockX’s “State of Resale” report, which examines shifts in consumer resale preferences. The second is Stifel’s 17th Annual Back-to-School Athletic Footwear Survey. Individually, each report highlights key trends we've been discussing, such as Nike's declining popularity, the continued rise of retro-running styles, and potential challenges facing the resale market. However, they also triangulate on one big emerging theme: The next must-have footwear style is a jump ball — and the style that ultimately prevails will redefine the competitive landscape.

I understand that striking the right balance between sustainability, durability, and affordability is no easy task for kid's four-to-teen footwear brands. I understand that balancing comfort and extra fitting against cost and simplicity can be equally challenging. I understand that trying to please both kids and parents can feel like walking a tightrope when it comes to aesthetic appeal versus practicality. I’ve helped many brands overcome these obstacles, delivering products that meet customer expectations without compromising on quality or values. Let’s work together to find the balance your brand needs to thrive.
