Athletic shoe store revenue is expected to creep upwards at a compound annual rate of 5% over the five years through 2023-24. While the British high street has struggled, athletic shoe store retailers have remained resilient. Exercise boosts physical and wellbeing, and everyone wants to get those endorphins pumping – rising participation in sports means pumped-up sales. Athleisure and casual dress have gained acceptance in mainstream fashion thanks to the wellness movement and hybrid working. Athletic shoe retailers' marketing goes far beyond product features and taps into emotional experiences, creating a sense of community and brand loyalty that keeps shoppers returning. Some trainers aren't made to be worn – instead, they are seen as collectors' items and are high in demand and changing business models boost direct-to-consumer sales (DTC).
