The 270 maintains its iconic 32mm Max Air unit (the largest in Nike history) while incorporating performance-ready updates for baseball culture:
- Breathable ballistic mesh upper

"This collaboration represents the continually blurring line between performance dugout apparel and streetwear," says Nike Baseball VP Adam Rothacker. "Just like MLB's City Connect program changed jersey culture, we're doing the same for diamond-adjacent footwear."
With the World Series picture still developing, collectors are already predicting these City Connect editions will become grails as Nike expands MLB cross-programming through All-Star Week and postseason activation.
