Bags from specialist second-hand leathergoods retailer Louise Paris.
Alliance France Cuir has shared more information from a leather-specific consumer attitude survey it carried out late last year. By Leatherbiz.
In the survey 82% of consumers said they buy products made from leather.
A particular tendency among young consumers, those aged between 18 and 24, caught Alliance France Cuir’s attention. The survey showed that 25% of consumers in this age group shop specifically for second-hand leathergoods, while 13% of them said they look for new and previously owned products.
Across the whole group of respondents, €85 emerged as the average price French consumers are prepared to pay for a pair of shoes. Only three people out of ten said they were prepared to spend more than €100 per pair on footwear.
With regard to handbags, the average price people in France will pay worked out at €153. The survey revealed that 15% of French consumers will pay more than €250 for a handbag.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
