The study, based on a survey of 8,000 teens with an average age of 16.3 across 47 US states, found that overall spending among Gen-Z shoppers is up 6% from fall 2018 and 1% from a year ago. Among clothing brands, Nike still reigns supreme, named as the favorite brand of 22% of those surveyed, while American Eagle was the second most mentioned brand at 9%คำพูดจาก Game Casino. Adidas and Forever 21 tied in third place with 5%, while Hollister came in fifth with 3%.

Lululemon reached an all-time high in the rankings, grabbing eighth place in the overall apparel classifications and second place among athleticwear brands. Nike also topped the footwear charts with 41% mindshare, although Vans came closer than any other brand has in recent years to challenging this position with a personal best of 20%. Adidas (13%), Converse (5%) and Foot Locker (3%) rounded out the top five. Across categories, Amazon was the preferred shopping website of half of all those surveyed, making it the uncontested leader among e-tailers. Nike trailed behind in second place with a comparatively paltry 5%, while Urban Outfitters was mentioned by 4% of those surveyed, American Eagle by 3% and Fashion Nova – making its first appearance in the top five – by 2%. It’s worth noting, however, that successive studies – including a recent report from LIM College – have shown that Gen-Z consumers prefer the experience of shopping in brick-and-mortar stores to making purchases online, particularly when it comes to certain categories. Indeed, an overwhelming 90% of female teens surveyed by Piper Jaffray said that they preferred shopping for cosmetics in store, rather than onlineคำพูดจาก Nhà Cái Casino Online. In this context, Ulta Beauty (33%) unseated rival Sephora (31%) as the favorite retailer in the category for the first time ever.

Nonetheless, within the category, the favorite handbag brand was Michael Kors – mentioned by 28% of those surveyed – followed by Kate Spade at 14%. It was a tie in third place once again, although here the battle was between Louis Vuitton and Coach, which both boasted 11% mindshare, just ahead of Gucci’s 8%. With the economic clout of Gen Z growing rapidly, insights into the demographic’s evolving consumer behavior are increasingly valuable. According to figures from Fung Global Retail & Technology cited by Piper Jaffray, Gen Z currently contributes $830 billion to US retail sales annually.
