Various countries across the globe, such as India, United States, Italy, etc., had imposed a lockdown for months which resulted in no outdoor activities and led to no purchase of apparel and footwear products, even various stores were forced to remain closed.

Apparel and footwear manufacturers are also likely to create more convenient and easier options to avail supply chains to match the pace according to the changing fashion trends.
