Diabetic Footwear Market by Type (Shoes, Sandals, and Slippers), End User (Men and Women), and Distribution Channel(Online Platform, Specialty Stores, Footwear Stores, and Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2022–2031
The global diabetic footwear market size was valued at $5,802.5 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $14,183.7 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 7.9% from 2022 to 2031.
Diabetic footwear also known as extra depth shoes, are therapeutic shoes, which help improve and maintain the foot health by reducing the damage caused by skin breakdown of patients suffering from diabetes and are diagnosed from foot deformities. The key aspect of diabetic footwear is to prevent foot injuries from frequent mobility with the help of a removable shoe inert and insole, which are made up of stretchable material for adjustability and customization.
The growth of the diabetic footwear market is influenced by the rise in prevalence of various forms of diabetes, which results in huge expenditure toward the diabetes treatment, escalating population in the developing countries, and the rise in per capita income of individuals. However, lack of awareness in the general population in regards to the use of diabetic footwear and counselling for proper foot care is expected to restrain the growth of the global diabetic footwear market.
Production and availability of innovative and new diabetic shoes in the U.S. strengthen the growth of the North America diabetic footwear market. Moreover, rise in disposable income in emerging countries, such as China and India is expected to increase the demand for diabetic shoes in the Asia-Pacific region during the forecast period.
The rise in prevalence of diabetes, the increase in adoption of specialty shoes among the diabetic and obese population, the rise in concerns over the adverse effects associated with the synthetic medicines globally, the shift in the consumer behavior of people for safer alternatives, and the rise in awareness among the diabetic people are the primary factors that are expected to drive the growth of the diabetic footwear market during the forecast period.
On the other hand, factors such as a lack of sufficient information about usage of diabetic footwear among end users, particularly in underdeveloped and emerging countries as well as high cost of diabetic footwear as compared to regular footwear, is predicted to hinder the diabetic footwear market expansion during the forecast period.
