The U.S. sporting goods industry is experiencing dynamic growth — projected to hit $128 billion by 2030 — driven by an increasingly active and health-conscious population. Sporting equipment leads the market, with athletic apparel and firearms/hunting equipment also being significant contributors.

This growth is further influenced by technological advancements like artifical intelligence and virtual reality in retail, a push for customization, and increasing emphasis on sustainability.
