Table 2. Categorization of Thermal Underwear Consumers by Age.
9. 9SUMMARY
• ХХХ% of the total selection have plans to purchase thermal underwear in the future:
out of those who has purchased thermal underwear– ХХХ%;
out of those who has not– ХХХ %.
• Therefore, the correlation between the actual and potential thermal underwear buyer
audiences in Moscow is ХХХ. This means that the Moscow thermal underwear market at
this moment is close to saturation. But considering that not every intention to purchase
leads to its realization, and additionally considering the negative macro- and micro
economical processes (stable negative Consumer Confidence Index, decrease in car
purchases, sales decrease in FMCG segment of medium and premium level) one can
assume that the Moscow thermal underwear market has a tendency to contraction in the
nearest future. One should predict a decline of the consumer demand for thermal
underwear by ХХХ %.
10. 10SUMMARY
• Multiple purchases (over 60%) prevail in those who have purchased/worn thermal
underwear.
• Prevailing frequency of thermal underwear purchase is once per season (approximately
50%). Less often than once per season – 37%. More often than once per season – 8%.
• The addressees of the thermal underwear purchases are mostly self-usage (for self) –
over 50%. Then there are purchases for self and others (24%) and For others (16%).

Outdoor sports (ХХХ%);
Everyday wear (ХХХ%).
For warmth when it is cold (ХХХ%);

12. 12SUMMARY
Brand Preferences of the Thermal Underwear Buyers.
• ХХХ Brand share in the Moscow thermal underwear market is approximately ХХХ %
(in the absolute values from the number of Moscow residents who have worn it –
approximately ХХХ people).
• The audience of ХХХ Brand and the audience of Moscow residents, who have
purchased/worn thermal underwear are somewhat different: the audience of ХХХ Brand
is more high-profitable.
From the buyers of thermal underwear of ХХХ Brand: a challenging purchase for 54%
is car, for 27% - real estate, for 11% - major appliances.
From the audience of the Moscow resident buyers of thermal underwear: a
challenging purchase for 23% is a car, for 18% - major appliances, for 15% - real estate.
13. 13SUMMARY
• Competitive surrounding of ХХХ Brand without a statistical load of those who don’t
remember (provided data are not ranked by decrease of their significance):*

North Face - ХХХ %;
Nova Tour - ХХХ %
Marmot - ХХХ %;
Glissade - ХХХ %;
Cratex – ХХХ %.
Other brands (mostly singular) – 42%.
• The inability of most of the respondents to remember the trade mark of the purchased
thermal underwear implies that the consumer behavior can be described by the phrase
“ХХХ”.
• This is supported by a low, comparing to the purchases in Sportmaster (see further),
recognition of Glassade (ХХХ% purchased the thermal underwear in Sportmaster, 3%
specifically purchased Glissade, 5% recognized Glissade).
* The total of values exceeds 100%, as the respondents could mark several options.
14. 14SUMMARY
Awareness of the Thermal Underwear Brands
• The research showed that in half of the cases (47%) the buyers do not know the
brands of thermal underwear.
• In those who knew, the leading trade mark by recognition is Adidas (32%). But in this
case one has to account for distortions related to a global nature of this Brand.
• ХХХ Brand is in the group of the most recognized brands.
Without considering Adidas the following brands are listed in accordance with their
awareness (provided data are not ranked by decrease of their significance):
Norveg (ХХХ %);
Marmot (ХХХ %);
Guahoo (ХХХ %);
North Face (ХХХ %);

Nova Tour (14%);
Cratex (12%);

that the advertising effectiveness (buyer awareness) is considerably ahead of the
distributional one.
