If you never wear their "Cortina" back then, school attire never complete.
But then came the "rubber version" of the Cortina which was later found to be good for the rainy season.

Dem get the commercial for NTA back then.....

Serious brands are coming back and they know in their mind that they already have a sizable market share by reason of their reputation. That's good name for you and it is better than mago-mago riches.

Bata was a European shoe company that did a lot of business in Nigeria in the 1960s to early 1990s.

In 1992 the Nigerian branch became Famad, but due to issues with the company, it went under financially several years later.

Bata shoes were the shoes of first choice for middle and upper class Nigerians back then. Infact almost every child wore Bata Cortina and Bata white tennis shoes (for sports days)

Bata by choice!

That was it! Their outlets are usually close. But Bata was considered superior then. It might be because Bata came far earlier.
May the good old days and more return
