"Rise in awareness regarding personal hygiene boosts the market growth"
The emphasis on personal hygiene among men is a significant driver propelling growth in the men's underwear market. Increased awareness and importance placed on cleanliness and grooming practices have led to a rising demand for quality underwear.

What restraints the growth of the global men’s underwear market?
“Online shopping platforms limit the market growth”
The global men's underwear market faces a significant limitation due to the inability of online platforms to provide customers with a physical experience of trying, touching, or feeling the product before making a purchase. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar stores, online shopping lacks the tactile element crucial for intimate apparel such as men's underwear. This constraint may result in customer hesitation, as individuals may be uncertain about the fit, comfort, and overall quality of the product. The absence of hands-on experience could lead to increased product returns and potential dissatisfaction, posing a challenge for online retailers in the men's underwear market.
