BATA HERITAGE AND COCA-COLA LAUNCH CAPSULE COLLECTION
Global brand Batas Bata Heritage partners with Coca-Cola for an iconic capsule collection that puts a fresh spin on the legendary Bata Tennis and Hotshot styles. Coca-Colathe second best-known word around the globe after OKshares with Bata Heritage its distinctive red and white colors as well as values of authenticity, community and trust. The two family brands join their DNA to unveil an array of fun and graphic styles.
The Bata Tennis shoe has been manufactured since 1936 in India for school children to wear for their Physical Education classes and continues today to be one of the brands best-selling shoe. For this collaboration, the spelt-out Coca-Cola logo is applied in white on red canvas on the whole upper shoe and matches the piping and laces. Another Tennis model features the Coca-Cola red dot logo all over the front upper of the white canvas shoe, with matching red piping and laces. The same style is available with white dot logo (and white piping and laces) on red canvas. All styles feature white rubber outsole and toe cap.
First introduced in 1972 as a basketball shoe, Hotshot gained traction after music legend Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain was spotted rocking the sneakers on several occasions during the band’s heyday. There are different styles and color variations that make Batas basketball shoe rock with Coca-Cola. There is a graphic off-white version that features red stitching, laces, side and back logo, as well as a thick piping going all around the shoe; as well as the same style in off-white side and laces, with Cokes famous tagline the real thing embossed in statement black on the side of the sole.
The Coca-Cola + Bata Heritage capsule collection will be available at the Bata store in SM Megamall on March 15, 2019.
