With a quarter of the season behind us, the 2025 MLB campaign is in full swing. It's too early to see who the true contenders for the World Series as well as end-of-season awards are, but at this juncture we can crown Nike as true innovators of the on-field jersey movement in the 21st century.

The latest proof of their dedication to baseball culture comes in the form of the all-new Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, which just hit retailers this morning after much anticipation.

Celebrating MLB's Vibrant City Connections

This special edition collection captures the essence of eight MLB teams through their distinctive City Connect colorways:

• Boston Red Sox (YELL | @ YOU daytime look)
• Chicago White Sox (Southside black & silver)
• Los Angeles Dodgers (Hollywood nights blue gradient)
• Miami Marlins (Calle Ocho neon accents)
• San Diego Padres (3D marina palm print)
• Houston Astros (H-Town orange peel texture)
• Arizona Diamondbacks (Turquoise Sonoran desert)
• San Francisco Giants (Bay Bridge fog grey)

Each pair features team-specific detailing including embroidered logos on the tongue area and coordinated reflective materials that mimic stadium lighting conditions during night games.
