The UK's imports of men's or boys' underpants, briefs, nightshirts, pyjamas, bathrobes, dressing gowns, and similar articles of knitted or crocheted textiles are projected to decrease subtly from 2024 to 2028. The import volume is forecasted to fall gradually from 163.61 million items in 2024 to 163.04 million items in 2028. Compared to 2023, the values show a slight but consistent decline, highlighting a trend of modest contraction in this segment.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts towards sustainable and eco-friendly materials as consumer preferences evolve.
Impact of trade policies post-Brexit that could affect international supply chains and import costs.
Technological advancements in textiles that may influence consumer demand and market dynamics.
