The survey was conducted using an online questionnaire and collected data from 205 young generations. Multiple linear regression in SPSS software was used to analyze the collected data. This study shows that consumer ethnocentrism, perceived quality, and perceived price significantly affected willingness to buy. Meanwhile, the perceived brand image had no significant effect on willingness to buy. Further research is suggested to compare several local fashion brands with different positioning. The results of this study can be used as input for Ventela shoes in facing business competition and business development by paying attention to the variables used.
