Market Overview:

India sportswear market size is projected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.30% during 2024-2032. The growing focus of key players on offering a blend of functionality, fashion, and fitness to a diverse and health-conscious consumer base is primarily driving the market growth across the country.

Sportswear refers to casual clothing designed for both comfort and engagement in athletic activities. This category encompasses a variety of garments, including tracksuits, tennis shirts, T-shirts, hoodies, shorts, polo shirts, and swimsuits, primarily worn during physical exercise or sports participation. The choice of materials for manufacturing sportswear varies depending on the sport's intensity and type, with common flexible fabric options including cotton-polyester, nylon-spandex, cotton, polypropylene, polyester-spandex, and wool blend. Sportswear finds widespread use in various physical activities such as golf, tennis, cricket, football, basketball, hiking, bicycling, and jogging. Its design is tailored to enhance athletes' performance, prevent injuries during exercise, provide additional comfort, reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), promote the wearer's health, and minimize post-workout muscle cramps when compared to generic sportswear.
