Background & Methodology
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
About The Study
In this report, NPD Fashionworld focuses on 80 key brands of men’s casual sportswear – defined
as “men’s casual sportswear (excluding tailored clothing and underwear).” The definition is
intentionally broad allowing consumers’ perceptions to somewhat influence which brands represent
“men’s casual sportswear.”
The study includes a wide array of brands - from private label brands, such as Route 66, Gap and
Arizona to designer brands, such as Tommy Hilfiger, Polo by Ralph Lauren and Nautica.
This study provides trended information based on a similar survey fielded in 2001and 2003.
The survey was administered to a nationally representative sample of NPD online panelists age
13+ from February 1 to February 14, 2006, reflecting the annual 2005 recall period. Individuals
who indicated that their household never purchased men’s casual sportswear were excluded from
the study. Because so many women are involved in purchasing men’s clothing, both men and
women were asked about their awareness, purchase and perceptions of key men’s sportswear
brands.
In order to acquire a readable sample base of upper income households, the survey was also
administered to a nationally representative sample of NPD panelists age 13+ with household
incomes of $100,000 or more. Both sample groups were weighted individually to match current
U.S. Census projections.
Charts for the upper income and big & tall buyer groups are provided but are not analyzed against
the general population in this report.

Summary of Sample Returns by Group
Panel members were instructed to visit the NPD Online Research survey site in order to complete
and submit the survey about men’s casual sportswear purchasing. As an incentive to complete this
survey, five $100 drawings were included.
Panelists were initially asked a screening question: “How often does your household purchase
men’s casual sportswear (excluding tailored clothing and underwear)?” Possible response
selections were: once a month/every 4 weeks or more often, once every two to three months, once
every four to six months, once or twice a year, less often than once a year or never. Individuals who
indicated that their household “never” purchased men’s casual sportswear were excluded from the
study.

Executive Summary
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
Men’s casual sportswear, as a category, is showing both unit and dollar growth versus last year
– driven by knits, jeans and outerwear.
Despite concerns about the economy, men’s casual sportswear is one category that continues to grow.
This category saw a 4% growth in dollars from 2004 to 2005 for a total $36.6 billion in sales. Growing at
almost the same rate, unit volume showed a 3% increase to 2.1 billion in 2005.
Within the men’s casual sportswear category some specific apparel items show increases in sales while
others have declined over the past year. Knits, jeans, and outerwear showed the greatest unit and
dollar volume growth from 2004 to 2005. Additionally, the average retail prices for both knits and jeans
also remained stable while in the outerwear category, average retail prices dropped 2%.
Specialty Stores continue to drive the men’s casual sportswear dollar volume, generating 30% of all
dollar sales. Department Stores generated another 18% of the dollar volume followed by National Chain
stores at 16%.
In terms of unit volume, Specialty Stores and Mass Merchants are the leading channels. Combined,
they generated over half of all men’s casual sportswear units sold in 2005.
The men’s casual sportswear category’s brand composition has largely remained unchanged versus
2004. Of all the men’s casual sportswear units and dollars sold in 2005, national brands accounted for
42% of the market. Meanwhile, private label brands accounted for another 32% of the market share.
When consumers think about men’s casual sportswear, most think of national players who are
known for “basics” (such as jeans or casual tees) or activewear.
Levi’s, Old Navy, Nike and Fruit of the Loom rank #1 - #4 respectively on aided awareness, grabbing
the top rankings– each with over 6 in 10 reporting recognition of the brand when thinking about
men’s casual sportswear. These brands have awareness levels similar to those reported two years ago
- and appear to be “leveling off” after seeing significant declines in the 2001 to 2003 tracking period.
The only brand in the Top 20 to increase its aided recall in 2005 versus 2003 was Dickies (+3
percentage points to 50%). Dickies, a brand that has been around since 1922, has a history focused
on work wear (hence the tagline “A Legend in Workwear™”). However, the brand is also popular
among younger men, gaining the spotlight as a brand worn by rappers and hip hop artists such as Trick
Daddy at the BET Spring Event and Kevin Federline seen in People and Us Weekly wearing a Dickies
Logo T.
Many brands continue to show a decline in the level of aided awareness; brands such as Docker’s,
Gap, Polo by Ralph Lauren, Lee, Eddie Bauer and Bugle Boy.
Outside of the Top 20 ranking, several other men’s casual sportswear brands evaluated are making
progress in terms of aided recognition as men’s casual sportswear brands, including American Eagle
Outfitter (+8 vs. 2001 levels), Champion (+7), Croft and Barrow (+7), Cherokee (+5 vs. 2003 levels),
Kenneth Cole and Columbia (both at +6).

Executive Summary
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
Levi’s held its #1 ranking for past 12 month purchasing with about 3 in 10 consumers reporting
they had purchased the brand in the past year. This reflects a gain of 5 percentage points over 2003
for Levi’s and is similar to levels seen in 2001 for this brand.
The majority of brands with high aided awareness levels also appear on the Top 20 for reported
purchasing in the past year. However, ck/Calvin Klein, Bugle Boy and Banana Republic which
appear in the Top 20 for aided brand awareness fail to make the Top 20 for reported past 12 month
purchasing.
Younger men, however, do show some differences in brand preferences – with vertical
specialty retailer brands and Nike moving up in the rankings when it comes to purchasing.
Among the Top 10 brands reportedly purchased in the past year there are some differences by age,
although brands like Levi’s, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, Nike, and Old Navy clearly appeal across all
age segments and are represented as part of the Top 10 list across all age groups.
The men’s casual sportswear buyer who is under the age of 35 is more likely than older consumers
to report purchasing Nike. In fact Nike ranks as the #1 reported men’s casual sportswear brand
purchased by those in the Under 25 and 25-34 year old age segments.
Among those under age 25, American Eagle Outfitters also appears in the Top 10 ranking for past
year purchasing, with reported levels comparable to Levi’s (14%).
Abercrombie & Fitch makes it on the Top 10 list of brands purchased in the past year among 25-34
year olds -- 13% of men’s casual sportswear buyers in this age range reported purchasing this brand.
In terms of what is important to buyers, its still about comfort. But certain brands have shown
some gains in terms of consumers thinking of them as “quality” men’s casual sportswear, “a
fashion leader” and as “value” brands.
Consistent with previous waves, comfort is still one of the top cited dimensions across all brands,
demonstrating the importance that consumers place on comfort when purchasing men’s casual
sportswear. Overall, however, the average comfort ratings across the brands included in the survey
continued to decline slightly, at 47% (down from 48% in 2003 and 50% in 2001).
Brand Perception Fast Facts:
The North Face was the only brand in the Top 20 to show increases in perceptions of quality versus
reported 2003 levels. This 38 year old brand is known for performance apparel and technically
advanced products, many of which are targeted at specific outdoor specialty sports such as
mountaineering, camping and skiing.
Fruit of the Loom continues to hold the #1 slot for being thought of as an “excellent value” among
men’s casual sportswear buyers who know the brand.
Express Men’s, a brand that had not made the Top 20 before, showed the largest gain, +8
percentage points versus 2003 for “a fashion leader”. Launched in 1987 and then re-created in 2002
as Limited Brands when Limited Brands converted Structure stores to Express Men’s stores, this
brand touts an international influence with modern appeal. Many stores have been closed and reopened as dual gender outlets.

Executive Summary
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
Columbia Sportswear continues to show steady gains for “a brand I’m willing to pay a little more
for” and The North Face saw a +4 percentage point gain versus 2003 for this attribute. Columbia
Sportswear was founded in 1938 and went public in 1998. Recent advertising spots featured Gert
Boyle, the 80 year old Chairman, testing Columbia’s performance outerwear products on her son
(president of Columbia Sportswear) in humorous situations.
Only two brands showed an increase versus 2003 for “sold in a store where I prefer to shop” -- Croft
& Barrow (+2 percentage points) and Arrow (+3 percentage points).
Champion, Fruit Of The Loom, adidas, and Hanes continue to be the top rated brands on “clothing
that is comfortable to wear”.
“Value-added” features, such as special fabrics and rinses, are more likely to be on
consumers’ radar than they were two years ago – and many say they would buy men’s casual
sportswear items that offer these special product advances.
Some fabrics/rinses have been around for awhile, and have fairly high recognition levels – such as
wrinkle-free (about 9 in 10) and stain resistance (about 3 in 4) fabric treatments.
Recognition of other fabric treatments, however, has increased versus just two years ago such as
awareness for Stain Release, UV Protection and Cooling/Moisture Wicking.
Consumers reporting aided awareness of UV Protection showed the largest increase - up 9
percentage points to 30%. Almost as many consumers (29%) say they’ve heard of Cooling/Moisture
Wicking as a product attribute available in men’s casual sportswear items (up 7 percentage points
from 2003). Stain Release also showed a hefty increase, up 6 percentage points to 43% having heard
of this fabric feature.
Not only are consumers more aware of these features, but over half also say they
definitely/probably would buy men’s casual sportswear items that have Cooling/Moisture
Wicking, and 1 in 3 have a positive purchase interest for UV Protection.
Three new fabric treatments were added to the survey this year, Fade Resistance, Anti-Microbial,
and Anti-Bacterial. Fade Resistance scored relatively high in awareness with 61% of men’s casual
sportswear buyers indicating they had heard of this treatment.
Anti-Microbial and Anti-Bacterial each had 15% of all buyers aware of this treatment for men’s
casual sportswear, with the highest concentration of those aware being in the 25-34 age range.
Although these have significantly lower awareness levels overall than other treatments, about 3 in 10
men’s casual sportswear buyers who know about them say they would definitely/probably purchase
items with these special fabrics/rinses.

Market Overview
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
How big is the men’s casual sportswear market and how does it trend?

swimwear, totaled $36.6 billion for annual 2005. This represents 4% growth versus annual 2004. Unit

Which categories are performing well?
The knits, jeans and outerwear categories showed the greatest unit and dollar volume growth from 2004 to
2005. Average retail prices for knits and jeans remained stable, leading the trends within each category to
be the same for both dollar and unit volume. It is interesting to note that increased popularity of “premium”
Men’s denim brands did not affect the average price of the jeans market as a whole. In outerwear, average
retail prices dropped 2%, causing the category’s dollar volume growth to be slightly less aggressive than its
unit volume growth.

those under age 35 are more frequent buyers, while those age 55 and older are most likely
to shop once a year or less often for men’s casual sportswear.
•Although women may shop more frequently when buying items for themselves, men and
women’s purchase frequencies for men’s casual sportswear items are similar. No
significant differences were seen by gender.

Category Dynamics
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
The media has been focused on the emergence of the “metro-sexual male” over the past several years
- men who are interested in fashion and make their own shopping decisions. And consumer reporting of
how purchase decisions are made regarding men’s casual sportswear are now beginning to reflect a
shift in this direction as well.
Consistent with survey findings from 2001 and 2003, the majority of men surveyed reported having at
least some involvement in the purchasing of men’s casual sportswear for their household. However,
almost 6 in 10 men (59%) reported that they shop for and purchase casual sportswear clothing
themselves, up 4 percentage points from 2003 while about one in four men (27%) state they shop
with the female in their household for clothing, declining 3 percentage points from two years ago.
Similar to the reporting dynamic seen since tracking started in 2001, women are less likely to report that
men are involved in the purchase decision process for men’s casual wear purchasing than are men
themselves.
• Only 14% of women surveyed reported that the male shops and makes the purchase himself
(compared to 59% of males), while the number of women saying they made the purchase
decision independently rose versus 2 years ago (+3 percentage points to 32%). This dichotomy
reflects the perceptual difference between males and females about who in the household is
most involved with men’s casual sportswear purchasing.
Despite this difference in opinions, women do appear to continue to play a key role in the purchasing of
men’s casual sportswear for at least a portion of men. Therefore, it is important for marketers to include
women in their evaluations of consumer awareness and appeal of brands in this category.

Price remains a major factor in the purchase of men’s casual sportswear, with over half of consumers
reporting that they buy the majority of their men’s casual sportswear either on sale or at a discounted
price, up slightly from 48% in 2001. Those under age 35 continued to be the least likely to report that they
make most of their men’s causal sportswear purchases on sale/discounted.

Similar to the prior two waves, about one in five consumers surveyed cite Wal-Mart as their favorite store
for men’s casual sportswear. This is primarily driven by the older age segments (those over 35). Old Navy
is the top cited “favorite store” for men’s casual sportswear behind Wal-Mart by consumers under 25 (about
1 in 10).

Most purchasers of men’s casual sportswear say
they know about wrinkle-free (about 9 in 10) and
stain resistance (about 3 in 4) fabric treatments.
Additionally, six in ten buyers of men’s casual
sportswear say they know about fade resistance.
While awareness of cooling/moisture wicking is
lower than many other fabric treatments overall, it
shows increases for those saying they have a
positive purchase interest in the fabric feature.
Overall it appears that more and more consumers
are becoming aware of special fabric treatments
such as stain release, UV protection and
cooling/moisture wicking in men’s casual
sportswear.

Top 20 Brands: Aided Awareness
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Men’s casual sportswear encompass a wide array of brands that represent items from the casual end of
the spectrum, like jeans, t-shirts and active/sports apparel, to the more business-casual elements within
the category, like khakis and knit polo shirts. Note: As in 2001 and 2003 studies, the definition of
men’s casual sportswear was intentionally left open for interpretation by consumers with only
tailored clothing and underwear excluded from the explanation of the category.
The average aided awareness across the Top 20 brands dropped from 64% in 2001 to 60% in 2003 and
continued to decline to 57% in 2005. As noted in 2003, this could be a reflection of:
• Increasing fragmentation in the marketplace as more and more brands compete for consumers’
attention.
• Shifts in advertising spending for men’s casual sportswear brands overall.
• The growing competition in advertising of apparel versus other categories, such as entertainment,
electronics and telecommunications.
Levi’s, Old Navy, Nike and Fruit of the Loom
rank #1 - #4 respectively based on aided
awareness. All brands in the Top 4 show
awareness levels similar to those reported two
years ago – each “leveling off” after seeing
significant declines in the 2001 to 2003 tracking
period.
• Docker’s aided awareness fell another 6
percentage points in 2005, losing a
cumulative 9 percentage points versus 2001
levels (59% versus 68%).
• Gap and Lee were down -5 and -4
percentage points respectively versus 2003,
also losing a cumulative 9 percentage points
versus 2001 levels.
• Bugle Boy experienced one of the most
significant declines among brands in the Top
20 – losing 7 percentage points versus 2003
awareness levels and down 12 points versus
2001 (50% versus 62% respectively).
• About 7 in 10 men’s casual sportswear
category purchasers say they have heard of
Levi’s for men’s casual sportswear (69%),
edging past Old Navy (68%).
• About 2 in 3 men’s casual sportswear
category purchasers say they have heard of
Nike for men’s casual sportswear (66%),
while Fruit of the Loom, a brand more
known for casualwear ‘basics’ such as t-shirts
and sweats, follows at 64% aided awareness.
The only brand in the Top 20 to increase its
aided recall in 2005 versus 2003 was Dickies, +3
percentage points to 50%. Abercrombie & Fitch
remained stable at 51% for the past 3 tracking
waves.
Wrangler, ranked 5th for aided awareness in
terms of men’s casual sportswear, showed a
continued decline, dropping 3 percentage points
versus 2003 levels to 62%, and down 10
percentage points versus 2001.
Looking beyond the Top 20, men’s casual
sportswear brands that have seen increases in
aided awareness over the past 2-4 years include
American Eagle Outfitter (+8 percentage points
vs 2001), Champion and Croft and Barrow
(each +7 percentage points vs 2001), Cherokee
(+5 percentage points vs 2003), and Kenneth
Cole and Columbia (each +6 percentage points
vs 2001).
Within the Top 20 ranking for aided awareness
when thinking of men’s casual sportswear,
Docker’s, Gap, Polo by Ralph Lauren, Lee, Eddie
Bauer and Bugle Boy also show continued
declines in aided awareness versus the prior
two waves.
Mossimo was also added to the survey for 2005,
and came in with 20% aided awareness for men’s
casual sportswear.

Aided Awareness by Age Segment
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Although Levi’s ranks #1 based on total men’s
casual sportswear buyers, Old Navy actually
outranks Levi’s based on younger buyers (those
under 34) – followed by Nike in the #2 slot. Old
Navy, ranks 4th among buyers aged 35-44, 4554, and 55+ when looking at awareness by age
group.
Bugle Boy appears to have stronger recognition
levels among those in the 25-44 and 55+ age
segments.
Other differences in brand recognition levels by
age segment include:
Van Heusen shows up in the Top 10 for older men
(age 55+).
Lee does not make it in the Top 15 among men
under age 25, however it’s awareness level is
highest among men aged 45-54.
Wrangler does not appear on the Top 10 ranking
for aided awareness among men’s casual
sportswear buyers under the age of 35, but ranks
as one of the top 3 brands for those aged 35-44,
45-54 and 55+.
Recent Wrangler advertising has focused on
male
sports
venues
and
male-oriented
magazines. Touching back on its promotions of
the 80’s, Wrangler selected Dale Earnhardt Jr.,
following in the footsteps of his late father, as
spokesperson for the brand.
L.L. Bean shows a similar pattern, with Top 10
aided awareness for older men (over 35) but
absent from the top rankings for those under 35.
Nautica, Abercrombie & Fitch and American
Eagle Outfitters, however, appears in the Top 10
for brand awareness for younger men’s casual
sportswear buyers (Under 35) while failing to
make the Top 10 for their older counterparts.
adidas’ recognition levels are driven by those
under 45.
The higher awareness levels among younger
men’s casual sportswear buyers for American
Eagle is reflective of its target – as the mall-based
retailer focuses on 15-25 year olds at its 850+
locations across the US and Canada. Formerly
known for more outdoor-wear, it has shifted its
product mix focus to more casual products and
accessories. American Eagle publishes its own
lifestyle magazine, which doubles as a catalog.
Abercrombie & Fitch, also positioned to attract
younger shoppers, continues to feature models
with “ripped” muscular torsos and what they
define as “casual luxury”.

Top 20 Brands: Purchased Past 12 Months
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Brands that appear in the Top 20 for past 12
month reported purchasing for men’s casual
sportswear that had lower aided awareness
levels include Lands’ End, Champion, Joe
Boxer, Nautica, Faded Glory and Arizona.
As seen over the past several years, men’s
casual sportswear is a fragmented category
with few brands garnering over a 10% share
of reported purchasing.
Most of the brands that have high aided
awareness levels also appear on the Top 20 for
reported purchasing in the past year with the
exception of ck/Calvin Klein, Bugle Boy and
Banana Republic – which appear in the Top 20
for aided brand awareness but fail to make the
Top 20 for reported past 12 month purchasing.
American Eagle Outfitters saw an increase in
reported purchasing versus 2003, up 4
percentage points to 10%. Dickies, Lands’ End,
Reebok, and Champion also saw small up-ticks
in reported purchasing, +2 percentage points
versus 2003 levels.
Route 66, a brand that garnered 10% reported
purchasing in 2001, remains low at 4% after
falling to 5% in 2003.
Levi’s maintained its #1 ranking for past 12
month purchasing, with almost 3 in 10 consumers
saying they had bought the brand in the past
year – a gain of 5 percentage points over 2003
and back to levels seen in 2001.
While still staying true to their core customer,
Levi's has made strides to become more of a
player in the premium market.
Levi’s new
RedWire DLX iPod jeans, which will be available
worldwide Fall 2006, will help breathe new life
into the Levi's brand and attract not only new
customers but also the 'young and hip' crowd.
Fruit of the Loom, Nike, Wrangler, and adidas
also showed a re-bounding in reported past year
purchasing versus 2003 levels.

Top 20 Brands: Conversion
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Conversion is a scorecard of how well a brand is doing at converting those who know about the brand into
the current buyer franchise. While some brands have relatively low awareness overall, they may be doing a
great job of convincing this smaller target audience to buy their brand – resulting in high conversion levels.
About half of the brands that had high awareness levels (in the Top 20 ranking) also make it into the Top 20
for conversion. For these brands – Levi’s, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, Wrangler, Nike, Dockers, Old Navy,
adidas, Dickies, and Gap - it appears that not only do a lot of consumers know about the brand, but they are
capturing a large proportion of them as buyers as well.
Columbia Sportswear continues to climb in the rankings for conversion – ranking #8 and increasing its
conversion to over 1 in 5, +6 percentage points over 2003 levels.

Top 20 Brands: Retention
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Getting a consumer to buy a brand once is different from maintaining them as a repeat buyer who makes up
the core of your loyal buyer franchise. Retention, therefore, is a measure of how well a brand is doing at
keeping current brand buyers in the franchise. Note: Because this measure is based on respondents who
made a purchase of the brand in the past year, many brands have fairly small base sizes. Small base sizes
can result in what appear to be significant shifts year to year due to their inherent instability, and may not
necessarily indicate large improvements or declines in the actual retention levels.
Brands that have dropped out of the Top 20 versus 2003 based on retention include Gap (-11 percentage
points, 59% 2005 vs. 70% 2003), Wrangler (-7 points), and Dockers (-10 points).
FUBU, Banana Republic, Abercrombie & Fitch, Kenneth Cole and Perry Ellis all increased retention versus
2003 levels and rank in the Top 20 – however each have low base sizes that can contribute to instability in
the data from year to year and should be viewed with caution.

Top 20 Brands: Prospects
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Many marketers focus their advertising spending trying to elevate brand awareness, as increasing
awareness is the first step in gaining trial. The number of “prospects” (those that who are aware of a brand,
have not yet purchased, but plan to in the next year) can therefore be thought of as a leading indicator of a
brand’s growth potential. Brands with large groups of prospects can be poised for market share growth, if
they can persuade the consumer to buy. Similar to the past two waves of tracking, most brands have low
prospect scores, demonstrating how difficult it is to break through to consumers.
Levi’s, Hanes and Fruit of the Loom remain in the top 3 ranking on this dimension, although Hanes and Fruit
of the Loom swapped positions – with Hanes prospects declining 2 percentage points versus 2003 and Fruit
gaining 3 points.
Within the Top 20, Savane, American Eagle, Dickies and Old Navy also show increases in the number of
prospects versus 2003.

Top 20 Brands: Relevance
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Many brands attempt to segment consumers by adopting a positioning that resonates with certain targeted
buyers. Therefore there are many brands that have fairly high awareness levels, but are perceived as
brands that are not appropriate for them personally. Across all brands in the study, the average “relevance”
score is only 37% - or about one in three men who identify a brand they have heard of as being “appropriate
for me”.
Levi’s, Hanes and Fruit of the Loom top the rankings for relevance again this year, showing that not only do
these brands have broad awareness, but also seem to offer up a positioning that resonates with most men
who have heard of them.
Savane shows a significant increase in relevance – although it has a fairly small base of consumers who
know the brand (6%). Russell and John Henry show similar trends, with smaller awareness levels but
increasing relevance among those who do know the brand. Rustler appears to have rebounded somewhat
in relevance after a dip in 2003, and more activewear-oriented brands such as adidas, The North Face and
Reebok show increases versus 2003.

Top 20 Brands: Momentum
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Once again this year, Abercrombie & Fitch and Tommy Hilfiger get top rankings as being brands thought of
as “in or hot” by consumers. Although ranked #2, Tommy Hilfiger does show a fairly significant decline in
momentum ratings, down 6 percentage points versus 2003 levels and -16 percentage points versus 2001.
Overall, the average “in or hot” rating fell across all brands included in the survey as did the average across
the Top 20 brands – indicating that what is considered “in” or “hot” may be diverging across different age
segments and buyer groups – resulting in an overall lower rate when evaluated in total.
Brands seeing increases in momentum in the Top 20 include American Eagle, The North Face
Express Men’s.
and
Conversely, FUBU, shows a significant slide in terms of being thought of as an “in or hot” brand (-21
percentage points versus 2001), as does Levi’s (-13), Old Navy (-11), Gap (-12), Dockers (-16) and Eddie
Bauer (-14), as well as several of the designer brands (cK, Polo, DKNY, and Nautica).

Momentum by Age Segment
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Abercrombie & Fitch and Calvin Klein/cK are the only two brands that show up in the Top 10 across all age
segments of men’s casual sportswear buyers. Nike appears in the Top 10 for 4 of the 5 age segments
based on being considered “in or hot” (absent from those 35-44).
Under Age 25
Versus 2003, the Top 10 brands that men’s casual sportswear buyers consider “in or hot” has changed, with
only 5 brands appearing in both 2003 and 2005. Abercrombie & Fitch continues to rank #1 with younger
men when it comes to this dimension – with almost 2 in 3 buyers under 25 citing the brand as “in or hot”.
American Eagle moves up the ranking, at #2 and increasing 4 percentage points versus 2003. Express
Men’s also moves up in the Top 10 to #3, +3 points versus 2003 levels while Nike drops from #2 to #4 (-7
points).
Tommy Hilfiger, Polo, Nautica, Dickies and Grand Slam fall out of the Top 10 rankings for those 25 and
younger, while The North Face, adidas, Old Navy, Banana Republic and Calvin Klein/cK replaces them.
Age 25-34
Men’s casual sportswear buyers aged 25-34 cite many of the same brands noted in 2003 among the Top 10
for “in and Hot”, including A&F, Tommy Hilfiger, Polo, Nike, Gap, FUBU, Nautica and Kenneth Cole –
although the specific rankings within the Top 10 have shifted slightly across the brands. Timberland and
Perry Ellis show up for the first time in 2005 in the Top 10 for this age segment, while Old Navy drops out.
Age 35-44
Those aged 35-44 are the youngest age segment to cite Levi’s in the Top 10 as being thought of as an “in or
hot” brand (ranked #7). Top 10 rankings on this dimension are similar to those seen in 2003, with the
exception of FUBU, Dockers and Eddie Bauer as brands that fall out of the Top 10 in 2005, replaced by
Banana Republic, Calvin Klein/cK and Express Men’s.
JNCO also appears on the Top 10 for momentum for this age segment, a brand absent from the top
rankings for both younger and older age groups.
Age 45-54/55+
Express Men’s ranks #1 among men’s casual sportswear buyers 45-54 as being “in or hot”, while Levi’s
Silvertab also makes the Top 10 among this age segment.
Among men’s casual sportswear buyers aged 55+, the Top 10 for brands thought of as “in or hot” is a mix of
designer brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Polo By Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein/CK, Nautica, and
performancewear such as Columbia Sportswear and The North Face as well as more established national
brands such as Dockers and Levi’s. A & F and American Eagle also make the Top 10 ranking for this age
segment.

Top 20 Brands: Ratings
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Brand Ratings Among Past 12-Month Buyers of a Brand
How a consumers perceives a brand hopefully reflects the marketer’s intended brand positioning. In this
section of the survey, consumers were asked to provide specific feedback on each brand they were aware
of. Specifically, consumers were asked which statements listed below (if any) described each brand.
Consistent with previous waves, comfort is still one of the top cited dimensions across all brands,
demonstrating the importance that consumers place on comfort when purchasing men’s casual sportswear.
Overall, however, the average comfort ratings across the brands included in the survey continued to decline
slightly to 47% (down from 48% in 2003 and 50% in 2001).
As would be expected, certain brands resonate with consumers as “high quality” while others capitalize on
their “value” positioning.

General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Even though most brands making the Top 20 in the Fashion Leader category for 2005 are the same as
those seen in past years, most are showing a decline.

versus 2003. American Eagle is also showing a steady increase year over year.
Two brands who were previously in the Top 20 but have fallen off this year are FUBU and Old Navy.

Top 20 Brands: Sold In A Store Where I Prefer To Shop
Men’s Casual Sportswear 2005
General Market (Rep Men and Women Age 13+)
Cross-shopping continues to be as popular as ever and could be the reasoning behind consumers not
singling out any one brand as sold in the type of stores where they prefer to shop.
Overall, about two in ten men’s casual sportswear shoppers cite any of the brands as being sold in stores
where they prefer to shop.
In fact only two brands show an increase versus 2003, Croft & Barrow (+2 percentage points) and Arrow
(+3 percentage points).
