Rising obesity and increasing awareness of the advantages of cycling and swimming will help the triathlon apparel market grow. Triathlon is a growing sport and these apparels aid in reducing drag in the water, improving aerodynamics on the bike, and enhancing comfort and breathability during physical workouts. Additionally, the popularity of stylish, high-quality triathlon clothing due to emerging fitness trends globally is boosting product demand.
 

Triathlon is a niche sport and thus, its apparel sees low adoption compared to other athletic wear. The use of high-tech materials in the making of these clothing has increased product prices, which impacts the market outlook negatively. Moreover, several companies have a large customer base, restraining the growth of small businesses. However, the commercialization and shifting lifestyle trends in developing nations have pushed market growth.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the triathlon clothing market due to the increasing popularity of outdoor sports such as triathlons in line with a strong inclination towards staying active while adhering to social distancing protocols. However, supply chain disruptions and halts in manufacturing activities resulted in low demand for this apparel due to delayed or canceled events. Nevertheless, in the post-pandemic scenario, rising awareness regarding triathlon events globally is propelling industry expansion.
