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 validation of Nike's dominance comes in footwear form with the Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, which drops today to coincide with the midway point of baseball's expanded regular season. The special collection updates the kicks with MLB team-inspired colorways that draw from each club's popular alternate uniforms.
One Run, One Shoe
Each sneaker in the pack faithfully translates a team's City Connect designs to footwear form while maintaining the Air Max 270's signature silhouette. The Chicago White Sox edition blends black and volt green, the Baltimore Orioles pair goes full orange, and the Miami Marlins iteration resurrects the club's controversial but distinctive South Beach color palette.
Limited quantities are available through Nike's website and select MLB team stores. With prices starting at $160 per pair - and resale markets already showing markups of 300% for coveted colorways - the collection serves as both a collector's item and wearable celebration of baseball's most progressive uniform movement.
