The re-import of waterproof footwear covering the ankle but not the knee to France is on a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with values projected to decrease by approximately 13-23% year-on-year. In 2023, the actual re-import values were higher than the 2024 forecasts, signifying a negative outlook. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period also reflects a downward trend, indicating a steady reduction in this re-import activity annually.
Future trends to watch for include changes in consumer behavior towards sustainable and durable footwear, potential shifts in global trade policies affecting imports/exports, and innovations within the footwear industry, particularly in waterproof technologies.
