Italy Skateboard Market Research Report, 2028

After the early 1990s skateboarding boom, important skateboarding periodicals like XXX and Skate and Snowboarding ultimately shut down in 1994, giving the Italian skate scene a severe kick in the shins.

Wimpy Wasted Time was a free-press publication that was founded in 1997 by the authors Luca Basilico and Ale Formenti. It was published in 2001. Following that, Basilico developed 6:00AM skateboard culture magazine and got in touch with the publisher of a renowned snowboard magazine. 6:00AM and Freestyler publications, as well as an expanding number of independent businesses and stores, help retain the pulse of Italian skateboarding going today. Ivan Federico, Alessandro Mazzara, Jacopo Carozzi, Asia Lanzi, Fabio Montagner, Davide Holzknecht, and Giuseppe Cola are some of the well-known skateboarders in Italy.

Italy's economy had previously suffered because the lira was substantially weaker than the dollar. However, its economy hasn't necessarily steadied despite the adoption of the euro in 1999. In actuality, the euro drove up living expenses in Italy. Skateboards are no exception, making it challenging for local skateboarders to stay stocked up on merchandise or even to support local businesses. It's fairly pricey. A full skateboard costs about 200 euros, whereas one-bedroom apartment rents for roughly 500 euros each month. Skate shoes typically cost between 100 and 150 euros, while the average worker makes roughly 700 euros per month. Even Italian skateboarders have been forced by this price increase to look for less expensive alternatives, compromising quality. Younger children prefer to spend 59 euros to purchase a replica deck at the neighborhood sports facility. Fortunately, there are some positive developments for Italian skateboard business owners. Numerous Italian businesses are prospering as skateboarding gains popularity across Europe. As per World Bank, Italy's population was 59.07 million people in 2021, with 28.78 million men and 30.29 million women. The majority of the population, 38.40 million people, is between the ages of 15 and 65. 10.8 million People Rural areas have 56.5 million people, while urban areas have 56.5 million. The World Bank estimated that Italy's GDP in 2021 was 2.1 trillion USD, with an inflation rate of 1.9% and a per capita income of US$35,551.3. The increasing Youth Population and rising popularity of skateboarding among teenagers are major factors for the growth of the Skateboard Market in Italy.

Additionally, electric skateboards have developed a fan base among individuals of all ages throughout the world due to their use.
