Since the character industries are booming, this study focused on the source and the expression method of sports brand characters that are already known to consumers. Subjects of this study were university students who were interested in sports brand characters, living in Seoul and Kyenggi-do. The questionnaire were developed based on the previous studies. Data were analysed by Frequency analysis, ANOVA, Duncan Test, and Spearman′s Rho. The results were as follows: 1. The most preferred source of sports brands character was "illustrated human figure"(i.e. a famous athlete like Michael Jordan). And the most favorite expression method of character was the combination of letter and symbol as the character of ASICS and NIKE. 2. The important design factors of sports brand character were the symbolism and aesthetics. The consumer recognized NIKE as the most well-designed character design. 3. Consumers′ preference of sports brand was found to be NIKE, REEBOK, ADIDAS, and FILA, in order. The reasons for preference were the design, the brand image, and the quality. On the other hand, the most frequently purchased brand was NIKE, FILA, and ADIDAS in order. Most of the purchase took place in the brand outlet store, and the consumers usually came with their friends for purchase of sports brand. The display of store was the consumers′ major source of information. 4. The preference group of sports brand character recognized more importantly color, design, brand, and especially fashionability than the non-preference group.

The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics of currently targeted consumers of the fashion enterprises. It also aims to assess the value of consumer-related variables that are related to market segmentation. In order to identify the characteristics of targeted consumers, the contents of brand concept and target of 143 brands for women's clothing, and 79 brands for men's clothing were qualitatively analyzed. The results are as follows. First, the demographic characteristics of both male and female included the desire to appear younger, and be more youthful in sensibilities than their actual age. In terms of occupation, male had more variety and concreteness than female. Male and female were above middle class, with an emphasis on being a part of the new generation, one that is young, free, healthy, and leisurely. Second, the psychological and behavioral characteristics of both male and female consumers included the benefit sought of the following: rationality, economy, practicality, functionality, individuality, fashionability, and aesthetics. Their fashion orientations were found to be practical, rational, fashionable, expressive of individual style, and aesthetic sensibilities. Their lifestyles were characterized by elements such as rationality, smartness, urban, active, healthy, young, leisurely, and stable. In terms of the spirit, female had a tendency to be intelligent, elegant, and sensitive, while also being self-reliant, self-disciplined, and unafraid of challenging situations. The male consumers had a tendency to be rational, progressive, passionate, and embracing change, with emphasis on legitimacy, honor, success, pride, and affluence. Third, the usefulness of consumer-related variables in targeting consumers was different according to male and female. These results show that there is a need for these variables to be looked at more closely during market segmentation process. This research may be used as base material in setting up the brand concept and the target market.

This paper considers the moisture permeability and fashion in the upper fabrics of cotton fabric shoes woven into various tissues and properties measured to examine the use as upper fabrics. We measured the tissues of the manufactured upper fabric are 1/3 twill, $4{\times}4$ weft rib, Maya, Triple, Deformed twill design (DTD), Diamond tissues and tear strength, tensile strength, breaking elongation, stretching under load at 100N, stitch tear resistance, and fastness. In the case of $4{\times}4$ weft rib, the tear strength and tensile strength were excellent; however, the elongation and stitch tear resistance at 100N load were less than the standard value. DTD fabrics are characterized by physical properties in the warp direction that are superior to those in the weft direction; however, the tear strength and tensile strength in the weft direction are less than the standard value. The 1/3 twill fabrics showed high tensile strength value and stitch tear resistance value in the warp direction; however, toughness, the main property of the shoe upper, was below the standard value. Triple and diamond fabrics, which have a significant effect on the performance of the shoe upper fabric, also had less than the standard value of tear strength. Maya upper fabric for shoes has better properties than other upper fabrics except for the elongation at break, and the stitch tear resistance has a value of 178% in the warp direction and 214% in the weft direction compared to the standard value. Therefore, the Maya fabric showed the possibility of being used as an upper textile for shoes.

This study focuses on online communities and the ritual conversations of users when participating in sharing activities. The study aims to understand the social and psychological phenomena that occur between users within the context of Erving Goffman's impression management theory. Case studies and a content analysis were conducted by collecting posts and comments related to fashion products in the sharing activities category on Naver Cafe "Family Sale." On the one hand, the study identified various disposition motives among givers, including a desire for recognition, self-expression, activation of the community, emotional sympathy, goodwill, play, and simple disposition. On the other hand, receivers' purchase motives included the need for a product, reciprocation based on a sense of belonging, play, gift-giving, and simple response. Analyzing the posts of givers and the comments of receivers of fashion products using impression management strategies and dramaturgical analysis, the study interpreted users' impression management and revealed propensities in fashion consumption: fashionability, conspicuousness, value orientation, and economic feasibility. Through ritual conversations, users managed to attain emotional stability on an individual level, while they reinforced collective bonds on a social level. They fulfilled their roles with their own narratives to achieve personal and collective goals in a non-face-to-face situations and non-monetary transactions. This study is significant in that it examines normative communication in an online community and user relationships to understand a recent phenomenon in the fashion industry.

본 연구는 2019년 5월 중에 J 지역 예비교사 270명을 대상으로 설문지법에 의해 의생활 라이프스타일이 교사의복에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 파악함으로써 교직의복문화의 교육적 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 자료분석을 위하여 SPSS 24.0 Program을 이용하여 요인분석, Cronbach's α 신뢰도 계수, t검증, 일원변량분석과 Duncan의 다중비교검증, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 중등학교 예비교사의 의생활 라이프스타일은 패션유행지향, 의복중요성지향, 매력적 외모지향, 경제성지향 요인으로, 또한 교사의복에 대한 태도는 활동성, 유행성, 정숙성 요인으로 유형화되었다. 둘째, 중등학교 예비교사의 의생활 라이프스타일, 교사의복에 대한 태도는 인구통계학적 변인인 성별, 학년에 따라 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 셋째, Z세대인 중등학교 예비교사의 의생활 라이프스타일은 교사의복에 대한 태도에 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 이제까지의 교사의복에 대한 고정관념에서 벗어나 교사의 변화하는 라이프스타일에 따라 의복을 착용하고 교직을 수행하는 교직의복문화가 형성되어져야 하겠다.

WTO체계 이후 급속히 변화하는 의류시장의 환경 속에서 진 제품 시장 역시 소비자의 다양한 취향에 따라 세분화 되고 있다. 이에 국내 진 브랜드들이 수입 진 브랜드들과의 경쟁에서 살아남기 위하여 소비자들이 추구하는 혜택은 무엇이며 그 혜택에 따른 제품을 평가하는 기준과 선호하는 이미지에 대한 연구의 필요성 이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 진 제품 구매자의 추구혜택을 알아보고 추구혜택 집단에 따라 제품평가기준과 선호 이미지에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고자 한다. 본 연구의 대상은 청바지 시장에서 주요 표적고객으로 선정되고 있는 20대 남, 녀 대학생으로 선정되었다. 표본추출법으로 할당표본추출법이 실시되었다. 자료수집은 설문지 응답방식으로 이루어 졌으며, 추구혜택, 제품평가기준 및 선호 의복이미지를 측정하기 위하여 선행연구에서 사용된 척도들을 본 연구에 맞도록 수정, 보완하여 사용하였다. 총 492부의 설문지가 자료의 분석을 위하여 사용되었으며, SPSS 11.5를 사용하여 cluster analysis, factor analysis, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, ANOVA 및 Duncan test를 실시하였다. 진 제품 구매자의 추구혜택에 따라 소비자를 유형화시킨 결과, 4개의 집단으로 분류되었다. 집단 1은 성적매력, 유행, 개성, 실용성과 같은 의복의 표현적, 도구적인 혜택을 모두 추구하는 집단으로써 다혜택 추구 집단이라 명명하였으며, 집단 2는 유행을 가장 추구하는 집단으로써 유행추구 집단이라 명명하였으며, 집단 3은 경제성을 가장 추구하는 집단으로써 경제성 추구 집단이라 명명하였으며, 집단 4는 유명상표를 가장 추구하는 유명상표 추구 집단이라 명명하였다. 추구혜택 집단에 따른 평가기준의 차이를 알아본 결과 심미적 기준, 외재적 기준, 품질성능적 기준에서 유의미한 차이를 나타내었다. 즉 다혜택 추구 집단은 제품을 평가하는 단서로 심미적 기준과 품질 성능적 기준을 다른 집단보다 더 중요시 여기고 있었으며, 유명상표 추구 집단은 제품의 외재적 기준을 더 중요시 여기고 있었다. 반면 경제성 추구 집단은 진 제품에 있어서 심미적 기준이나 외재적 기준은 별로 중요하게 여기고 있지 않았다. 추구혜택 집단에 따라 선호 의복이미지에 차이가 있는지를 알아 본 결과 개성적 이미지, 활동적 이미지, 섹시한 이미지, 세련된 이미지, 심플한 이미지에서 유미한 차이가 나타났다. 즉 성적 매력, 유행, 개성, 실용성을 모두 추구하는 다혜택 추구 집단의 소비자들은 진 제품에서 개성적 이미지, 활동적 이미지, 섹시한 이미지, 세련된 이미지, 심플한 이미지 모두를 다른 집단에 비해 더 선호하고 있었으며, 유행을 추구하는 소비자들은 개성적 이미지를 더 선호하고 있었다. 또 유명상표를 추구하는 소비자들은 청바지를 착용함으로써 개성적 인 이미지와 세련된 이미지를 표현하는 것을 더 선호한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
