Everyone is familiar with some brands in India. One such brand among many is Bata. The maker of shoes! I did use their shoes number of times, especially during school days as I used to tear off normal shoes prematurely during sport periods. So, my father always preferred Bata shoes for me. That was long ago. During or after college I didn’t wear this brand as considered this quite hard and old-fashioned. However, recently I bought a pair of loafer from Bata factory outlet – the shoes are K-series - their colours is off blue and are running fine since I have bought. In terms of quality Bata is fine but this time I managed to find something interesting in terms of design. But still I feel that Bata should heed more on design as per the changing generations’ preference, the way Nike and Addidas do. However, the pair that I have been using may go out of use in coming times so I am considering repeating the same one. First time in my life I am getting captivated by this pair that too from Bata. People trust Bata but Bata prefer going simple. The era of simplicity is over. They should now come up with something for dudes, not gentlemen.
