Swimwear market to hit USD 30.5 billion by 2028

The global swimwear market was worth USD 21.43 billion in 2021. SkyQuest anticipates the market to hit USD 30.5 billion by 2028, growing at a steady CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period (2022-2028).

Swimming is one of the most popular leisure and fitness activities globally. The demand for swimwear is increased by consumers' interest in swimming and the number of family beach vacations, which fuels the market's expansion. Furthermore, the swimwear market is expanding due to consumers leading healthier lifestyles and participating in more water sports like swimming. In addition, factors including the rise in women's demand for high-end swimwear, the expansion of public and private swimming facilities, and the adoption of e-commerce platforms all contribute to the market's rapid progress.

Swimwear is commonly worn by people participating in water-based activities such as swimming and bathing. It shields the wearer from chlorinated swimming pools and seawater, which contain salts that can cause skin rashes. Product demand is being driven by the global increase in population and product innovation to meet the need for specialized clothing for water sports and poolside or beachside vacations.

Based on SkyQuest's global research, in the sports & swimwear segment, the product volume is expected to amount to 4,376.4m pcs by 2028, and it's anticipated to show a volume growth of 3.8% in 2025. Such substantial growth projections indicate lucrative opportunities for market participants active in the swimwear market.

Polyester Segment to Register Fastest Growth Rate to Dominate the Swimwear Market

As per SkyQuest's market insights, polyester registered the fastest growth rate to capture a 34.3% share in 2022, and it is likely to take this lead to 37.5% by 2028.
