The exceptional design of diabetic footwear aids in protecting the patient’s feet from injuries. According to World Health Organization (WHO), in 1980, the number of diabetic patients was108 Mn, which in reached 422 Mn in 2014. Primary reason behind this growth in number is the busy lifestyle of urban society along with increased intake of sugar and other artificial sweeteners.

Diabetes is classified as Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 2 diabetes, the most common type, is caused mainly due to obesity and reduced physical activity. Global diabetic footwear market is largely driven by the rising cases of diabetes, increased spending on diabetes treatment, and growing geriatric population, characterized by high incidence of diabetes.

Asia Pacific is the most dominant region in the global diabetic footwear market.

China and India are home to one-third of the total global population with India being dubbed as ‘The Diabetes Capital of the World’. Increase in disposable

incomes has resulted in a rise in demand for diabetic footwear in the Asia Pacific region. Also, an increase in diabetic populace coupled with the availability of relatively cheap products from local players in India and China augments the growth of diabetic footwear market in the region.

Large geriatric population in North America and Europe accounted for a rise in number of diabetic cases in these regions. According to Population Reference Bureau, Statistics Canada and EU, geriatric population reported in North America was 51 million and 94 million in Europe.
