Market Overview:
The global softball shoes market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the softball shoes market can be attributed to various factors such as the increasing popularity of softball as a sport, rising disposable income, and growing demand for sports footwear globally. In terms of type, the synthetic leather segment is expected to dominate the global softball shoes market during the forecast period owing to its properties such as durability and resistance against abrasion. In terms of application, the professional player segment is expected to hold a major share in the global softball shoes market during 2018-2030 due to an increase in participation by professional players in tournaments across different geographies.
Product Definition:
Softball shoes are shoes that are specifically designed for playing softball. They have a rubber outsole that provides good traction, and they often have a cleat-like pattern on the bottom to help with grip. Softball shoes also tend to be lightweight and flexible, which allows players to move around the field easily.
Synthetic Leather:
Synthetic leather, also known as faux or fake leather, is a type of synthetic material that imitates the texture and appearance of real leather. It is produced by the chemical reaction of polyurethane with an essential oil. The most commonly used essential oils are Genet (leather), Eucalyptus (eucalyptus oil), and Menthol (mentholatum) among others.
Nature Leather:
Leather is a natural product and it's derived from the skin of animals. It can be processed into two types: full-grain leather and finished or grain leather. The type of leather used in softball shoes depends on the level of play, professional or semi-professional. For instance, baseball shoes made from full grain leather are used by professionals whereas beginners use finish grain products for making their shoe soles.
Application Insights:
The profession player application segment led the global softball shoes market in 2017. This is attributed to the high number of professional players and their preference for advanced footwear. Furthermore, this segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace over the forecast period owing to an increase in participation levels among women professionals across various countries worldwide.
Amateur player application was estimated as the second-largest segment in 2017 due to increasing popularity of fastpitch softball games among school students and young adults globally. In addition, growing popularity of outdoor sports amongst female athletes from pre-school age group up to late teens has also contributed towards significant growth of this segment during recent years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest growing regional market with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing participation rate, government initiatives, and rising popularity of sports in the region. In addition, increasing number of tournaments being organized by leagues such as APAC Premier League (APL) and Asian Championship Softball Series (ACS) are driving the product demand in this region. For instance, 2017 season saw China hosting many international tournaments including World Baseball Softb’s Championship; WBSC Women's Asia Cup; WBSC Junior AsiaSoftb’s Championships; and Chinese Taipei played host to various international tournaments including softball world cup under International Baseball Federation (IBAF).
