Designers from all over the world present their newest outfits at fashion shows and other events in order to increase consumer interest in leather clothing. On leather clothing and other fine outfits, numerous design techniques, such as brocade, Lamé, and applique, are frequently utilized. For instance, the Forever Leather Fashion show was held in Shanghai, China, in September 2020. Many modern-style jackets, cross-stitched trench coats, travel bags, leather shoes, duffel bags, and ankle boots were among the leather goods on display during the show. Several thousands of leather customers, producers, and designers from many provinces come together in such situations.

The demand for leather goods is rising as more High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs) become wealthy and designer and branded clothing become more popular in important markets like the U.S., France, and China. Exclusive and frequently expensive, leather items are a luxury. Due to the country's growing population of HNWIs and Ultra-High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs), the demand for leather goods is rising dramatically in China. China accounted for 10% of all HNWIs worldwide in 2018, according to Credit Suisse Group AG's World Wealth Report 2019, which was released in October 2019.

The demand for sustainable items has increased as people are becoming more aware of the negative effects of unethical activities in the creation of clothing and footwear. Due to the promotion of sustainability by numerous well-known designers, sustainable fashion is progressively drawing consumers. Designers like Stella McCartney have been promoting sustainable fashion items, including footwear, in cost-effective retailers like Top Shop and Zara, which is anticipated to fuel the market for leather goods throughout the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic has harmed the leather industry, including the sectors of footwear, clothing, and accessories. Throughout the first two quarters of 2020, retailers suffered significant losses. At the end of the first two quarters of 2020, World Footwear reported that footwear sales had decreased by almost 32% in the United States. As a result, it is anticipated that sales of leather shoes would decline due to the general lack of demand for footwear. China has historically been a major source of raw materials and finished goods for many firms in the market who produce different leather goods. Yet, the pandemic has seriously hurt on-time deliveries and product shipments by disrupting the supply chain.

Industry Dynamics

Growth Drivers
Due to the industry's rapid digital transition and the quantity of new product launches, demand for luxury products has increased recently. A major driver of growth is the rising leather goods market, which includes growing nations like India. The global market is also being driven by the rising demand for original natural leather as a luxury good and the increased usage of original leather in runway displays and by fashion designers.

Due to its convenience, the luxury goods e-commerce sales channel has made a substantial contribution to revenue development. Also, businesses' initiatives, like omnichannel commerce, will increase demand and draw in a bigger audience. Luxury businesses' increased use of social media marketing trends has increased its geographic reach.

Internationally shifting fashion trends have compelled industry participants to launch cutting-edge and popular products in order to satisfy consumer demand and preserve a devoted customer base. Also, shoppers choose attractive, portable leather products and baggage. When fashion trends alter, men's accessories like leather gloves, bracelets, and necklaces have gained popularity. As a result, the market will expand over the next few years as fashion trends change.

The expansion of local and worldwide tours has contributed to the expansion of numerous industries. Easy-to-handle leather baggage bags are more popular. Leather baggage that can withstand hard handling at any moment is required for lengthy travel. As a result, buyers select more expensive, higher-quality leather bags for easier travel.

The footwear segment held the largest market share. Given the rising customer demand for leather athletic footwear, major athletic footwear manufacturers like Nike, New Balance, Adidas, Puma, Reebok, Allbirds, and Converse have entered the leather athletic footwear production market.

Asia Pacific dominated the world market. The market for premium and luxury goods in the Asia Pacific area is growing, with nations like China and India leading the way.

The managing director of Leatherex Footwear Industries Ltd., Mohammed Nazmul Hassan, claims that 15 to 20 new factories producing leather goods and footwear are established in Bangladesh each year. Bangladesh is a desirable market for foreign leather goods brands due to the country's relatively cheap tariff rates on exported leather goods.

During the forecast period, Europe is anticipated to expand at a high CAGR. Belts, handbags, and other related categories hold the potential to be profitable leather products that will increase demand for leather goods in the area. Europe is a major role in the worldwide leather trade. The European leather and allied goods industry has more than 36,000 companies. The region produces some of the most expensive calfskins in terms of leather and other raw materials. The market for leather accessories will grow quickly in Europe as a result of the persistently high demand for purses and travel bags made of leather.
