Global brand Bata recently celebrated its first anniversar­y in the Philippine­s with a stylish get-together at its SM Makati store. Since its first store in SM Megamall opened a year ago, Bata Philippine­s now has branches in SM City Bacoor, SM Makati, SM Mall of Asia, SM City Marikina and SM City Fairview. The brand is also available at The SM Stores.

The event also featured Bata’s line of stylish yet comfy shoes. These include its Insolia line for women, trendy sneakers, glitzy pumps, fancy flats and boots with attitude. There are also sleek and classic designs in real leather that are made in Italy, as well as casual sneakers, slip-ons and sandals for men. Kids also join in the shoe party with adorable and fun footwear.

Bata was establishe­d in 1894 by a Czech shoemaker named Tomas Bata, along with his siblings Anna and Antonin. Since then, it has continuous­ly provided quality and trendy footwear around the world.

Bata has been a pioneer in footwear innovation with its Shoe Innovation Centres, which focus on new technologi­es, materials and designs that support shoe-comfort features and guarantee fashion-forward design. Bata, a brand with a heritage of over 140 years, predominan­tly makes their shoes in their own manufactur­ing facilities to ensure a superior product.

Today, Bata is present in 70 countries and operates over 5,000 internatio­nal retail stores. The brand sells over one million pairs of shoes a day.
