Italian market
The luxury leather goods market in Italy
The Luxury Leather Goods Market refers to the industry of preparing fine leather and producing items with the same leather, whether they are bags, gloves, belts or other fashion items. If it is easy to mention houses that firmly belong to the world of luxury, it is much less easy to draw a clear line between leather goods as a whole and the so-called luxury leather goods. Footwear represents an important part of the market; in 2018, it represented the highest share: 34.8 percent of the market. Luxury footwear is more of a fashion statement, and buyers of luxury footwear spend more and buy more frequently than buyers of other leather items, propelling the category forward.
