Scope
*Comprehensive market coverage - ten years' data on footwear expenditure, including men's, women's and children's footwear.

*Analysis of the market dynamics and issues, with recommended actions to produce winning strategies. Also includes market value forecasts to 2008.
Highlights
The footwear market will register its lowest growth in seven years in 2006 - increasing by just £36m. Price deflation from the growing influence of the clothing specialists has been a major influence in slowing growth, but specialists lacking innovation and lagging behind in exploiting the high growth accessories market has also been a factor.
Specialists have lost £146m in sales this year as clothing and sports specialists encroach further and further into their market. Meanwhile clothing specialists have added £114m of extra sales as they expand their product ranges beyond their core clothing offer, increasing sales and average transaction values from cross selling opportunities.
Slowing sales and rising costs have reduced specialists investment in new space or upgrading existing space. These two factors have compounded their difficulties - consumers demand innovative and attractive store environments to justify higher price points, while price-led offers require scale to survive.
