Earlier Report Observations

From 2018, Lithuanian men began investing more in high-quality and versatile knitted shirts, wearing them with both formal and casual attire, which supported market demand. The market volume grew from 1.99 million units in 2018 to 2.44 million units in 2021, despite a drop to 1.72 million units in 2020.

After 2021, the market volume declined to 1.87 million units by 2024, but the value increased, peaking at $17.4 million in 2023. This was driven by the growth of e-commerce, which expanded distribution channels, and fashion trends favoring durable and stylish shirts that emphasized quality over quantity.

Consumer preferences continued to evolve, with a 2024 focus on neat, thoughtful clothing for job market confidence, helping sustain the market value at $13.8 million even as unit sales decreased.
