Many local consumers chose to purchase economy jeans towards the end of the review period as they looked to reduce their expenditure in line with the rising cost of living and declining disposable incomes. While overall demand for more expensive jeans will continue to be driven by affluent consumers, some South Africans may invest in premium and super premium jeans when they are offered at a discount during sales periods.
An increasing number of female consumers in South Africa are voicing their concerns on various social media platforms that many brands of jeans are not designed with curvy or pear-shaped body types in mind. Many fashion retailers in South Africa still do not offer a wide enough range of sizes and cuts of jeans that make them inclusive of all female body shapes.
Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues linked to the fashion industry, in particular the negative effects of producing denim jeans, including high water usage during manufacturing. Jeans are often made from denim material, which due to its durable nature, also makes it difficult to decompose over a period of time.
