Irons in Japan

Irons in Japan

Irons volumes fell by 4% in 2016 to reach 1.4 million units sold. In Japan, so-called “wrinkle-free” shirts are commonly worn by businessmen to remove the need to iron shirts on a daily basis. Manufacturers offer steamers, which are smaller in size and easier to use on a daily basis, as a counter measure to the weakening demand for irons in general.
