Hosiery Market Drivers

• Increasing global demand for legwear hosiery garments among both men and women consumers across the globe is a major key factor projected to drive the global hosiery market over the forecast period. In addition, growing awareness of benefits of hosiery products such as high moisture absorbency, free airflow, very lightweight fabric, and softer and smoother quality are also likely to be another key driving factor for the market growth.
• Furthermore, rising adoption of hosiery products for the prevention of rashes and enabling sufficient breathability to avoid infections, high blood circulation, and absorbing sweat is likely to contribute to the growth and demand significantly during the forecast period. Rising need for hosiery from several types of applications like fashion, entertainment, and sports & fitness industry is propelling the demand for hosiery globally.

Hosiery Market Restraint

• However, introduction to premium and ultra-premium range of hosiery products across the world is hampering the demand for mid-range and small-range products. In addition, people who are more skin-conscious, cannot compromise with the quality of their products at any cost, especially for undergarments, which is likely to be another restraining factor for the global market.
