Hoodies and Sweatshirts are casual, comfortable clothing items typically made from soft, warm fabrics like cotton or fleece. Hoodies and sweatshirts have evolved from basic casual wear to fashion-forward essentials, driven by consumer demand for comfort, versatility, and self-expression. The market is propelled by trends such as the adoption of sustainable materials, customization options, and the integration of technology like smart fabrics. However, challenges like high production costs and environmental concerns over fast fashion persist. Innovations include the use of eco-friendly fabrics, tech-enhanced features, and collaborations between high-end designers and streetwear brands, reflecting a fusion of functionality and style.
For instance, in December 2024, a fashion trend report highlighted the resurgence of zip-up hoodies, shedding their previous associations and becoming a fashionable item once again.

The growing popularity of athleisure—a fusion of athletic wear and casual fashion—has significantly boosted the apparel market. Consumers increasingly prioritize comfort and versatility, leading to a surge in demand for clothing suitable for both workouts and daily activities. This trend is evident in the rise of brands offering stylish yet functional designs, catering to a broad demographic seeking performance-oriented fashion. Innovations in fabric technology, such as moisture-wicking and breathable materials, further enhance the appeal of athleisure, solidifying its position as a mainstream fashion choice.
For instance, in October 2024, Page Industries, the licensee for Jockey and Speedo brands in India, reported a significant 30% rise in second-quarter profit, driven by increased demand for premium athleisure products among higher-income urban consumers.

The demand for hoodies and sweatshirts is heavily influenced by seasonal changes, which can lead to fluctuations in sales. Typically, these garments experience a surge in demand during colder months, such as winter and fall, while demand drops significantly in warmer months. This seasonality can create challenges for retailers, including inventory mismanagement and the risk of unsold stock during off-peak seasons. Therefore, companies must plan carefully and adjust production and marketing strategies to address these seasonal shifts and ensure consistent sales throughout the year.
For instance, in May 2024, Puma India reported a dip in hoodie and sweatshirt sales during the summer months, emphasizing the challenge of maintaining steady sales year-round in a season-driven market.
(Source:https://retail.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/apparel-fashion/sportswear/puma-upbeat-on-growing-demand-shares-jump/109965878?)
The increasing interest among the youth population has significantly boosted the market for hoodies and sweatshirts. This demographic prioritizes comfort, style, and self-expression, leading to a surge in demand for these garments. Oversized fits, bold graphics, and sustainable materials are particularly popular among young consumers. Brands are responding by offering customizable options and collaborating with influencers to tap into this trend. The youth's influence on fashion trends continues to drive innovation and growth in the hoodie and sweatshirt market.
For instance, in March 2025, Pink Palm Puff's $89 hoodies became a hot new tween status symbol, popularized on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, showcasing the influence of social media on fashion trends.

In 2025, the global trade landscape has shifted dramatically following the U.S. introduction of sweeping tariffs under President Donald Trump’s administration. These "Liberation Day Tariffs," launched in April, aim to reduce trade deficits and boost domestic manufacturing. Tariffs range from 10% on imports from countries like the UK and Australia to 46% on Vietnamese goods, with a blanket 34% tariff on many Chinese imports and 25% on all steel, aluminum, and auto parts. This policy heavily impacts the consumer goods sector apparel, appliances, packaged foods, and personal care products due to their deep reliance on global supply chains, especially in Asia. U.S.–China trade tensions have intensified, with reciprocal tariffs reaching up to 145% on U.S. goods and 125% on Chinese exports, while China’s trade surplus with the U.S. hit USD 102.6 billion in March 2025. In response, the EU and Canada have implemented retaliatory measures, signaling a broader shift toward protectionism.
The consumer goods industry is feeling immediate effects: production costs are rising, sourcing is delayed, and inflation pressures are mounting. Apparel and footwear now face 25% tariffs, prompting brands to seek nearshoring options or raise prices. Household appliances incur 20% tariffs, complicating inventory and procurement strategies. Packaged foods and beverages are hit with 10–15% tariffs, impacting contracts and leading to supplier diversification and product reformulation. Personal care firms face higher costs for imported ingredients and packaging, leading to local sourcing efforts and delays in new product launches. Meanwhile, electronics, though temporarily exempt, are preparing for possible disruptions by diversifying suppliers and increasing inventories.
China remains the backbone of U.S. consumer goods sourcing, accounting for a large portion of imports either directly or through upstream components. This makes tariffs on Chinese goods especially disruptive. The rising input costs 15–30% in many categories combined with seasonal pressures and tight timelines, are causing delays and increased costs. Smaller brands, in particular, are struggling due to limited capital and reduced supplier leverage. Many are being forced to increase prices, cut product variety, or compromise on quality.
Market research is now critical to navigating this volatile environment. It supports supplier mapping and risk assessment, helping brands identify alternative sourcing countries with stable regulations and quality control. It also aids in cost and margin analysis, guiding decisions on pricing and sourcing changes. Optimization of product design and materials through research allows companies to reduce costs while maintaining consumer expectations. Additionally, research helps assess consumer price sensitivity, enabling strategic repositioning. Tracking regulatory changes and running scenario planning models allow firms to anticipate and adapt to future trade shifts.
To cope, companies are restructuring their global sourcing models. Major brands like Nike and IKEA are expanding operations in Vietnam, India, and Mexico, while embracing “in-market for market” strategies to reduce exposure to tariffs and logistics risks. Many are adopting AI-driven demand forecasting and automated procurement, and pushing suppliers for transparency. Product redesign and SKU rationalization are also common. The most successful firms are those using data-driven insights, operational flexibility, and strategic supplier partnerships to adapt not just survive in this new era of global trade.
