Malaysia’s footwear market is expected to expand from USD 2.5 billion in 2025 to USD 3.5 billion by 2030, delivering a compound annual growth rate of 6.96%. Growth will be supported by rising consumer interest in athleisure and sneaker culture, with styles that blend cushioned comfort, ergonomic design, and everyday fashion appeal gaining traction. The country’s strong engagement with sports—particularly running and gym workouts—is fueling demand for performance footwear that incorporates advanced materials and technologies to enhance comfort and reduce fatigue.
At the same time, macroeconomic headwinds, including higher living costs and persistent consumer goods inflation, are reinforcing price sensitivity across much of the population. Value-oriented shoppers are increasingly drawn to seasonal promotions, bundle deals, and membership programs, with e-commerce players leveraging competitive pricing and exclusive online discounts to capture share. Digital channels are also enabling broader access to international brands and expanding the range of styles available to consumers beyond traditional retail outlets.
Sustainability is emerging as an important secondary driver of choice, particularly among younger demographics who are increasingly receptive to eco-friendly materials paired with contemporary design. Brands that can integrate affordability, comfort, and style while differentiating through innovation and sustainability credentials will be well positioned to navigate Malaysia’s price-conscious but fashion-aware footwear market.
