In 2012-2013, China's apparel industry continues the status of adjustment, enterprises focus on destocking, and the production grows at a low speed.

Men's wear is the fastest growing sector of China's apparel market, and its share in the overall apparel market capacity increased from 36.6% in 2003 to 47.0% in 2012. In the future, with the rise of the middle class, Chinese men are paying more and more attention to appearance and fashion, and show stronger preference for apparel. The domestic men's wear market sales are expected to reach RMB408.4 billion in 2016.
