The Global Athletic Footwear Market was valued at USD 131.1 billion in 2024 and is projected to experience robust growth, with a CAGR of 5% from 2025 to 2034. This growth is primarily driven by the increasing emphasis on fitness and physical well-being as more individuals integrate regular exercise routines into their lifestyles. The demand for athletic footwear designed to deliver comfort, support, and peak performance has surged, spurred by the growing adoption of active lifestyles. Whether it's running, sports activities, or outdoor adventures, people are increasingly investing in footwear that enhances their performance and safeguards their feet during physical activities.
The rise in fitness trends, including running, walking, gym workouts, and sports such as basketball, tennis, and football, has significantly boosted the demand for specialized footwear. Moreover, as interest in healthier living continues to grow, outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, and trail running have become more popular. This shift has expanded the need for footwear that combines durability, support, and comfort, offering the necessary performance benefits for various athletic endeavors. The diverse nature of these activities has created a broad market for athletic shoes that cater to different needs, pushing the demand for high-performance footwear even further.
Market segmentation based on product types includes categories such as running shoes, walking shoes, sports shoes, hiking shoes, and others. The running shoes segment, valued at USD 53 billion in 2024, is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% through 2034. With running continuing to be one of the most popular forms of exercise globally, the demand for running shoes that offer the perfect balance of cushioning, support, and stability is on the rise. The increased participation in marathons and fitness runs further fuels this demand, pushing the running shoes segment to greater heights.
Additionally, the market is segmented by pricing, which includes economy, mid-range, and premium categories. The mid-range segment accounted for 45% of the market share in 2024 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period. These shoes are sought after by consumers who want a mix of performance, comfort, and affordability. Mid-range models often feature advanced cushioning technology, enhanced breathability, and stylish designs, making them popular among everyday athletes or fitness enthusiasts who seek value without compromising on quality.
The U.S. athletic footwear market dominates the global scene, holding an impressive 82% market share. The popularity of sports like running and marathons continues to surge, driving the demand for footwear that delivers superior cushioning, support, and durability. The growing number of endurance events, such as fun runs and marathons, plays a significant role in the robust growth of the U.S. athletic footwear market.
