Constant changing consumer demands will continue to shape the landscape of footwear, with specialist retailers in particular likely to focus on customer-centricity, interesting in-store experiences, and loyalty/reward programmes over the forecast period. Many Australians now appreciate the ability to shop across different channels, offering greater convenience and choice, with retail e-commerce gaining strong penetration of the category since the pandemic.
The trend towards inclusivity offers growth opportunities for major footwear producers and retailers to increase their target audience. Many global players have already leveraged the inclusivity trend by launching genderless and inclusive footwear collections.
Sustainability will remain a key theme that will continue to influence the development of both apparel and footwear in Australia due to rising awareness of the environmental impact of production and waste, in addition to ethical concerns regarding the use of materials from animal origins. Review period developments along these lines saw Cotton On launch its first vegan footwear including women’s sneakers, slides and thongs, which are all PETA approved.
