What restraints the growth of the footwear market?

“Fluctuation in price and unavailability of raw material”

The prices of crude oil are rising constantly and crude oil is the main source of synthetic rubber and fibers, which are widely used in the manufacturing of footwear thus footwear raw material prices are increasing. This ongoing concern is significantly distrusting the supply chain of both finished products and raw materials in the footwear industry.
