In 2023, China imported 2.5 thousand kilograms of knitted or crocheted gloves, mittens, or mitts of wool or fine animal hair. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in imports, starting at 2.35 thousand kilograms in 2024 and decreasing to 1.81 thousand kilograms by 2028. This reflects a consistent downward trend with year-on-year variations averaging around -6.1% annually.

Future trends to watch for:

Changes in consumer preferences towards synthetic alternatives or locally produced goods could further impact import volumes.
Potential economic fluctuations might alter the purchasing power and demands, affecting imports.
Environmental and regulatory changes might influence the sourcing and use of wool and fine animal hair products.
