Development characteristics of China's children's clothing market

1. Children's clothing brand products are mostly concentrated in middle-aged children (4-12 years old) and infants (0-3 years old), and teenagers' clothing (12-16 years old) is not much involved. In the past two years, enterprises have paid more and more attention to Xiangying An extension of toddler and teen clothing. But as far as youth clothing is concerned, the foreign brand Adidas is doing better, and other domestic brands are rarely involved.

2, the price is concentrated in the high-end. Chinese brand children's clothing gives the impression that the price is generally expensive, similar to the price of adult clothing. The main reason is that the design, workmanship, and fabrics of the current brand children's clothing are similar to those of adult clothing, but the cost of fabrics is reduced a little.
