Outdoor Sportswear Market Report Overview

The outdoor sportswear market size was estimated at $17.0 billion in 2022. The market is expected to achieve a CAGR of more than 6% during 2022-2027.

While restrictions have now ceased, some of the habits formed throughout the pandemic have remained, resulting in an increasing adoption of outdoor sports and streetwear trends worldwide, especially in emerging markets.

However, the outdoor sportswear market will continue outperforming in the forecast period, but growth will gradually slow as it becomes more established.

Outdoor Sportswear Market Trends

The rebound of outdoor activities and the growing prominence of outdoor wear in fashion trends have created the perfect environment for mainstream apparel brands to expand their existing outdoor ranges or launch new concepts. This is a perfect opportunity for apparel brands to enter the outdoor sports market by creating entry-level products that should attract newcomers who are less brand loyal to the top outdoor wear players and do not desire the latest material technology.

For instance, Nike’s ACG outdoor line has experienced a surge in popularity, largely due to the growth of the gorpcore trend among streetwear shoppers. Its products are often multifunctional, giving consumers the flexibility to wear them both while participating in outdoor sports and in their day-to-day lives, and sometimes feature technical materials such as GORE-TEX and Nike’s Dri-Fit. ACG also benefits from Nike’s strong global brand awareness and clever marketing, with the sportswear giant choosing to promote community values through its social media, which resonates well with younger shoppers.

Outdoor Sportswear Market Segmentation by Categories

The key categories in the outdoor sportswear market are sports clothing, sports footwear, and sports accessories.  The clothing segment dominated the outdoor sportswear market in 2022 and is expected to grow during the forecast period as items like puffer coats and jackets feed into the popular streetwear trend and are purchased frequently for their fashionability as well as functionality.

The key regions in the outdoor sportswear market are the Americas, Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Americas led the outdoor sportswear market in 2022.

“The GlobalData platform is our go-to tool for intelligence services. GlobalData provides an easy way to access comprehensive intelligence data around multiple sectors, which essentially makes it a one-for-all intelligence platform, for tendering and approaching customers.

GlobalData is very customer orientated, with a high degree of personalised services, which benefits everyday use. The highly detailed project intelligence and forecast reports can be utilised across multiple departments and workflow scopes, from operational to strategic level, and often support strategic decisions. GlobalData Analytics and visualisation solutions has contributed positively when preparing management presentations and strategic papers.”

Business Intelligence & Marketing Manager, SAL Heavy Lift

“COVID-19 has caused significant interference to our business and the COVID-19 intelligence from GlobalData has helped us reach better decisions around strategy. These two highlights have helped enormously to understand the projections into the future concerning our business units, we also utilise the project database to source new projects for Liebherr-Werk to use as an additional source to pitch for new business.”

Market Analyst & Management, Liebherr-Werk

Your daily news has saved me a lot of time and keeps me up-to-date with what is happening in the market, I like that you almost always have a link to the source origin. We also use your market data in our Strategic Business Process to support our business decisions. By having everything in one place on the Intelligence Center it has saved me a lot of time versus looking on different sources, the alert function also helps with this.

Head of Key Accounts, Saab AB

Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.

Marketing Intelligence Manager, Portugal Foods

Our experience with GlobalData has been very good, from the platform itself to the people. I find that the analysts and the account team have a high level of customer focus and responsiveness and therefore I can always rely on. The platform is more holistic than other providers. It is convenient and almost like a one stop shop. The pricing suite is highly competitive and value for our organisation.

I like reports that inform new segments such as the analysis on generation Z, millennials, the impact of COVID 19 to our banking customers and their new channel habits. Secondly the specialist insight on affluent sector significantly increases our understanding about this group of customers. The combination of those give us depth and breadth of the evolving market.

I’m in the business of answering and helping people make decisions so with the intelligence center I can do that, effectively and efficiently. I can share quickly key insights that answer and satisfy our country stakeholders by giving them many quality studies and primary research about competitive landscape beyond the outlook of our bank. It helps me be seen as an advisory partner and that makes a big difference. A big benefit of our subscription is that no one holds the whole data and because it allows so many people, so many different parts of our organisation have access, it enables all teams to have the same level of knowledge and decision support.

Head of Customer Insight and Research, Standard Chartered

“I know that I can always rely on Globaldata’s work when I’m searching for the right consumer and market insights. I use Globaldata insights to understand the changing market & consumer landscape and help create better taste & wellbeing solutions for our customers in food, beverage and healthcare industries.

Globaldata has the right data and the reports are of very high quality compared to your competitors. Globaldata not only has overall market sizes & consumer insights on food & beverages but also provides insights at the ingredient & flavour level. That is key for B2B companies like Givaudan. This way we understand our customers’ business and also gain insight to our unique industry”

Head of Consumer Sensory Insights, Givaudan

GlobalData provides a great range of information and reports on various sectors that is highly relevant, timely, easy to access and utilise.  The reports and data dashboards help engagement with clients; they provide valuable industry and market insights that can enrich client conversations and can help in the shaping of value propositions. Moreover, using GlobalData products has helped increase my knowledge of the finance sector, the players within it, and the general threats and opportunities.

I find the consumer surveys that are carried out to be extremely beneficial and not something I have seen anywhere else. They provided an insightful view of why and which consumers take (or don’t) particular financial products. This can help shape conversations with clients to ensure they make the right strategic decisions for their business.

One of the challenges I have found is that data in the payments space is often piecemeal. With GD all of the data I need is in one place, but it also comes with additional market reports that provide useful extra context and information. Having the ability to set-up alerts on relevant movements in the industry, be it competitors or customers, and have them emailed directly to me, ensures I get early sight of industry activity and don’t have to search for news.
