The import volume of sports footwear with soles and uppers of rubber or plastics to the US is forecasted to decline steadily from 9.7165 million kilograms in 2024 to 8.3616 million kilograms by 2028. This reflects a continuous year-on-year decrease. When considering the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period, the trend illustrates an average decline in import volume each year. Data from 2023 showed a higher baseline, indicating the market is contracting.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential impacts of evolving trade policies and tariffs could alter import volumes.
Changes in consumer preferences towards local production or sustainable options might further influence the demand for imported sports footwear.
Economic conditions, exchange rates, and shifts in global supply chains could also impact the market dynamics.
