The global leggings market is growing at six per cent a year.

The growth is driven by rapid urbanization, shifting consumer preferences, and increasing sports activities such as gyms and yoga. Leggings are used for both casual and athletic purposes because they are cozy, form-fitting, and flexible. Leggings are more popular than any other type of bottom clothing and can be worn in place of pants and jeans. Several e-commerce websites are concentrating on providing private label apparel brands to increase sales and diversify their customers. Rising sportswear manufacturing and an increase in multinational corporations forming joint partnerships with local players are expected to continue to support the revenue growth of the market to some extent. Also, the availability of affordable exercise equipment and rising household use of cardiovascular equipment like cycles and walkers are an opportunity for leggings manufacturers.

Women prefer nylon leggings as they are robust and resistant to moisture. Nylon clothing is not only inexpensive but provides good ergonomic comfort. Leggings made of nylon are popular among female athletes. Nylon apparel is easy to clean and can be worn throughout the year. The mid-calf leggings segment accounts for the largest share. Women prefer a mid-calf legging since it is stylish. Its short length places it between the knee and the ankle. It goes well with shorts or a skirt. This style of leggings is great for people who want to wear them while working out or going to the gym.
