Increasing Awareness among Motorcycle Riders about Safety to Boost the Motorcycle Boot Market Growth
Motorcycle boots are associated with motorcycle riders and range from above ankle to below knee boots. Motorcycle boots are made of thicker, heavier leather to improve rider safety and include load-spreading, energy-absorbing padding to protect the rider's legs, ankles, and feet in case of an accident. Furthermore, some motorcycle boots have a waterproof membrane lining such as SympaTex or Gore-Tex. While some motorcycle boots come with features such as a solid tread that keeps the rider’s feet from slipping off the pegs, enhancing the safety of the rider’s feet.
Increasing awareness among motorcycle riders about safety is expected to fuel the growth of the motorcycle boot market. Moreover, increasing adoption of riding gears (or increasing demand for riding gears) for professional championships, adventure touring, and road trips are also expected to propel the motorcycle boot market growth. Furthermore, growing concerns about road traffic injuries worldwide are expected to increase the demand for motorcycle boots. For instance, according to the World Health Organization, road traffic accidents cause around 1.35 million deaths worldwide every year.
The rising enthusiasm among the younger population (as a recreational activity) for motorbikes and adventure motorcycles and the increasing popularity of dirt, sport, and cruiser bikes is also expected to drive the demand for motorcycle boots. Moreover, increasing production and sales of motorcycles worldwide are expected to boost the market growth. For instance, Hero sold a total of 5,075,208 units of motorcycle and scooters in the first nine months of FY 2020. Furthermore, growing awareness about the rider and pillion safety is expected to boost the demand for various riding gears, including gloves, helmets, boots, and knee/elbow guards.
In terms of geography, the motorcycle boot market is divided into six regions, such as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, the Middle East, and Africa. Key players active in the market offer innovative motorcycle boots that are manufactured using leather, plastic, metal, and composites materials. These materials make motorcycle boots safe, comfortable, and lightweight. Moreover, key players are focused on introducing new products to meet the growing demand. For instance, in June 2020, Alpinestars launched a new Motocross Protection Collection to protect riders. The new collection includes the Tech 10 Supervented boot and the SM5 helmet, bringing leading ventilation technology to both the boot and the helmet.
