In 2023, the import volume of not knitted or crocheted men's and boys' trousers and shorts of cotton to France stood at a previous baseline. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent slight decline in import volumes. The year-on-year variation indicates a gradual reduction around 0.1% each year from 2024 onwards. This constant decrease leads to a steady average annual decline over five years, mainly due to market stabilization and potential shifts in demand or local production.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable and locally made fashion.
Potential trade policy adjustments impacting import levels.
Fluctuations in cotton prices affecting product costs and thus demand.
Innovations in materials or production processes that could change market dynamics.
