In 2023, Spain led European exports of outdoor footwear with textile uppers, although its year-on-year growth declined by 5.4%. Germany followed, with a smaller decrease of 2.46%. The UK and Poland showed minimal declines, while Belgium, Romania, Austria, Greece, and Malta recorded significant growth. Notable contractions were seen in Italy, Netherlands, Hungary, and France, with France experiencing a complete halt. Throughout 2019-2023, variations indicate a mixed trend, with countries like Lithuania and Ireland showing robust upswings, while many major markets faced challenges.
Looking ahead, expect dynamic growth in emerging markets, strong recoveries in top exporters from operational adjustments, and impacts from consumer shifts towards sustainable and innovative footwear options.
