SS23 Kids: Boys Key Items

For shores and skate courts! For next summer, boys are looking at assortments that propose a distinct focus on fun and community experiences. From holidays on the seaside, summer camps or urban subcultures, boys are looking to build their peer groups again and enjoy the possibilities to engage in social interactions.

Relevant trend products, like the tapered long Cargo, baggy shorts or XL T-Shirts are strongly influenced by skate and street culture and appropriate the 2000s mania of the moment for the boy’s market. In a more gentle approach, holiday sets and shorts in vocational prints, soft Terry shirts or relaxed collar-less linen pieces, are depicting the retro beach reminiscence that has made us dream over the past seasons. And with a utilitarian twist, more personalized and arty styles are enhancing the boy’s scout, camp atmosphere to add a quirky new feel to the mix.

Data to drive creativity.

In this report you can find Livetrend forecasting icon on top right, to detect the trend evolution for SS23. On bottom right, the Livetrend Stamp is an indication of the status of the trend, ranging from edgy and early signs to last calls, resulting from the cross-reference of Instagram and market data.

The influences of the 2000s will still be present for next summer, as well as those of the 1990s. Oversized shapes for tops will gain shares, especially with a minimalist or sporty spirit, inspired by basketball (which is showing a +400% growth in online searches), and deserves to be exploited in the coming season. Utility become trendy by mixing with the Y2K spirit, where cargo pants and bermuda shorts will remain a must to be interpreted in various materials and colors, without being afraid to wink at the girl world. Cargo pants represent only 1.8% of the trouser offering this summer and are set to grow in market share next year. In general, pants for boys remain fitted or straight and do not explore wide lines as we can see in the bermuda and shorts category.
