Scope
The Italian footwear industry is made up of the following specialised manufacturers:
• Classic men's and women's footwear in leather and synthetic materials Children's shoes?
• Slippers/house shoes
• Technical and sports shoes
• Work and safety shoes
• Marketing Research Report
- Product technology: footwear is made in a great variety of materials, such as leather, suede, nappa and other hides, woven fabrics of all kinds and even wood. The adoption of rubber and plastics for the soles and techno fibres for the uppers is fairly recent. Fastenings have also moved with the times, from laces to buckles to zippers, snap buttons, Velcro and clips. Different types of production methods are used to make the footwear, from the typically artisan to industrial. Production methods and techniques differ mainly in terms of the soles (the method used to attach the upper to the insole) rather than the uppers.
- Use: footwear is used primarily to cover and protect the feet but, like all fashion products, it carries a social communication cachet and is used often as a status symbol, which greatly influences features and consumption trends as well as the competitive dynamics.?
- Client groups: the largest footwear companies sell their products directly to the retailers (short supply chain, made up of independent stores, directly operated and franchised own-brand stores and large-scale distribution) while the smaller companies often go through the wholesale channel (long supply chain) to get their products into the retail stores.
