The re-import of footwear with outer soles of rubber or plastics and uppers of leather to Italy is exhibiting a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, this import volume stood at a higher value, compared to the projected values for the next five years. The expected volume decreases consistently: from 2024's 3.2845 million kilograms to 2028's 2.3436 million kilograms. Year-on-year percentage variation signifies a continual reduction, indicating a consumption or supply chain shift.

Future trends to watch for:

Sustainability policies impacting material choices in footwear manufacturing.
Technological advancements in leather alternatives affecting re-imports.
Changes in trade policies within the EU and Italy that could influence import dynamics.
