Bata is very old we grew up listening about it earlier it was great to have one bata shoes or slipper.but now a days so much competitor are there in which bata is lagging behind . in my near market big showroom of bata h as been closed recently . I am feeling sad why they not try to compete with others. actually bata shes and other product are very durable and comfortable . shoes are light in wait, and soft. school shoes are affordable
