E-commerce has continued to show value momentum in bags and luggage, but the main items sold online are lower-priced. Consumers are not able to see the finer details of a product, for example how the leather looks and feels, which is one of the reasons to purchase a luxury item.
While Euromonitor does not capture second-hand products in its personal accessories coverage, the second-hand market in Japan is expected to continue to show momentum in the forecast period, mainly due to the affordability of such products compared with new, especially in the luxury space. The expansion of C2C platforms such as Mercari in the last few years has convinced more consumers to accept second-hand items.
Bags and luggage has historically had a challenge in terms of sustainability initiatives, due to the use of leather. In a way, leather can be considered a sustainable material, due to its nature as a durable, lasting, and tear-resistant material, but concerns have been raised from an animal welfare perspective.
