Sporting goods store sales in the U.S. from 1992 to 2021

In 2021, sporting goods store sales in the United States amounted to about 64.5 billion U.S. dollars, which was a considerable jump compared to the previous year.

Athletic apparel market

The global sportswear market is a lucrative one, and is set to grow with each consecutive year. Nike and adidas are, by some margin, the leading companies in the sportswear industry worldwide. Other big companies that operate in this market include Puma and Under Armour. Not only is Nike one of the most prominent producers within the athletic apparel market worldwide, but the company also holds the honor of being ranked the world's leading apparel brand in general.

Athletic footwear market

In the United States alone, athletic footwear generates billions of U.S. dollars each year, making it a vital segment for this industry. Demonstrating its dominance within this sector once again, Nike was the global leader with more revenue from footwear than adidas and Puma combined.
