Performance apparel represents one of the fastest growing sectors of the
international textile and clothing industry - and market growth is being
fuelled by the emergence of new fibres, new fabrics and innovative process
technologies. The market is also being boosted by changes in consumer
lifestyles. People are living longer and spending more time on leisure
activities. New high-tech fabrics are being developed for a wide range of
active sports such as aerobics, athletics, ballooning, cycling, hiking,
mountaineering, parachuting, sailing, skiing, snowboarding, swimming, and
windsurfing.
Exciting innovations are emerging in smart textiles and nanotechnology - and
the sector' s growth prospects are helped by the trend in increasing demand for
performance features in mainstream fashion.
