It has become a fashion statement and a part of daily wear in China, driven by changing fashion and lifestyle trends. Consumers are looking for stylish and comfortable footwear that can be worn both on and off the court, which has created new opportunities for brands to innovate and introduce new products. Moreover, the Chinese government has been investing in the development of sports infrastructure and promoting sports activities as part of its national fitness programme. This has helped to raise awareness about the benefits of sports and fitness activities and has created new opportunities for brands to reach consumers in this market. In addition, China's population is ageing, and there is growing demands for products that can help older consumers stay active and healthy. This has led to a surge in demand for comfortable and supportive athletic footwear that can help reduce the risk of injury and enhance mobility.
