December 11, 2024 | Retail

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “India Socks Market Report by Product (Casual, Formal, Athletic, and Others), Material (Nylon, Cotton, Polyester, Wool, Waterproof Breathable Membrane, and Others), Application (Man, Women, Children), Distribution Channel (Supermarkets and Hypermarkets, Convenience Stores, Online Stores, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the India socks market size reached USD 214.7 Million in 2024. Socks are clothing items designed to be worn on the feet, typically extending up the ankle and sometimes to the knee or thigh. They act as a barrier between the foot and footwear, providing comfort, warmth, and protection. Socks come in a wide range of materials including cotton, wool, nylon, and silk, each offering different benefits. Cotton socks are comfortable and breathable, wool socks provide excellent insulation in cold weather, while nylon and silk socks are durable and provide a smooth fit. They come in different lengths like no-show, ankle-length, crew, and knee-high, and in numerous colors and patterns to cater to various personal tastes and fashion styles. One of the most essential features of socks is their ability to absorb sweat, reducing the risk of foot odor and infections. Some socks are designed with special features like moisture-wicking properties, reinforced heels and toes for durability, and elastic cuffs to ensure a secure fit. There are also thermal socks for cold weather, compression socks for improved blood flow, and padded socks for extra cushioning. Athletic socks often include additional support in the arch. With the evolution of technology, more advanced socks, like those with antimicrobial properties or embedded sensors for health tracking, are also being introduced in the market, which is steadily gaining traction.

In addition to this, the rapid urbanization is driving changes in lifestyle and fashion trends, leading to the increased demand for stylish, high-quality socks. Moreover, the growing awareness about foot health is contributing to this trend, with people seeking socks with specific properties, such as moisture absorption and breathability. Besides this, the proliferation of e-commerce platforms is making a variety of socks accessible to consumers all over the country, is propelling the market growth. In addition to this, the expanding sports and fitness culture is catalyzing the demand for athletic and performance-based socks. Apart from this, the rise in diabetic patients is catalyzing the need for therapeutic socks, thus contributing to the market growth. Along with this, the steady increase in the working population base is catalyzing the requirement for formal and semi-formal socks.
