DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/lcllvs/global_sports) has announced the addition of the "Global Sports Apparel Market 2015-2019" report to their offering.
The Global Sports Apparel market to grow at a CAGR of 4.32% over the period 2014-2019.
Sports apparel is worn during workouts or any physical exercise to provide the wearer comfort and style. T-shirts, hoodies, shorts, and tracksuits are typical sport-specific apparel used while playing sports and doing other physical activities such as exercise. Sports apparel is designed to be lightweight and have thermal properties that allow the wearer to stay warm in cold conditions and vice versa. Modern day sports apparel is made using advanced fabrics, which remove the wearer's perspiration away from the body to the outer surface of the apparel so that it can evaporate.
One key trend emerging in this market is the introduction of high-tech fabrics in the market. The increased demand for advanced and comfortable sports apparel worldwide is driving vendors to launch new product lines of sports apparel made of advanced high-quality fabrics.
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increase in disposable income levels and living standards worldwide. This worldwide increase, especially in developing economies such as Brazil, China, and India, has increased the demand for sports apparel.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the availability of counterfeit products. This poses a significant threat to the established brands as it affects these companies' brand image and profits.
