Footwear Manufacturing in the UK

The Footwear Manufacturing industry's revenue is expected to contract at a compound annual rate of 1.3% to £616.3 million over the five years through 2023-24. Before the COVID-19 outbreak, expansion had been facilitated by various government policies targeting innovation within the broader textiles manufacturing sector and growing interest in high-quality British footwear. British independent cobblers have aimed to capitalise on heritage brands and expand their presence abroad.

Companies in this industry manufacture footwear from leather and other materials. The industry also produces footwear parts (e.g. uppers, outer and inner soles, and heels). Companies also manufacture gaiters, leggings and similar articles. The industry excludes the manufacture of wooden shoe parts, textile shoes without applied soles, rubber footwear parts, plastic footwear parts, ski boots or orthopaedic shoes.
