In 2023, the actual volume of re-imported footwear with outer soles of rubber or plastics and uppers of leather to China stood at a notable value. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a consistent decline in volume. The year-on-year variation shows a steady decrease of approximately 7% per year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028 reflects an average annual decline of about 7%.

Future trends to watch for include:

Shifts in trade policies and tariffs potentially influencing re-importing activities.
Technological advancements in manufacturing and material sourcing that may alter cost structures.
