The global market for sports and sports-inspired clothing is constantly growing at a remarkable annual growth rate.

Future growth is guaranteed because:

1. Technological improvements in fibres, fabrics and manufacturing continue to make products better performing and more protective.

2. The current fixation with health and outdoor socializing has made athleisure the go-to apparel sector.

3. Formal dressing is in permanent decline. The future is hybrid dressing with comfort the driving factor.

That’s why Trendhouses’s Casual & Athleisure is a must have publication in the field. Unique in its approach, the book is easy to use, built in logical product and merchandising development stages to give a clear and complete overview of what’s important for the coming season.
