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 sportswear giant continues to push boundaries with its latest release - the Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, now available at select retailers and Nike.com. This collection serves as an extension of Nike's popular MLB City Connect uniform series that has reimagined team identities since its inception.

Bigger isn't Always Better, Except When It's Air

Featuring the brand's revolutionary oversized Air unit that debuted with the original Air Max 270 in 2018, these sneakers translate your favorite team's alternative aesthetic to footwear format. The substantial Air unit not only makes a visual statement but delivers all-day comfort - perfect for both the bleachers and the streets.

Team True Colorways

The timing couldn't be more perfect as we head into the summer months when statement fandom meets fashion sensibilities. Among the teams receiving signature sneaker treatments are:

• Boston Red Sox featuring their unique "Yellow-D-Blue" combined pattern as seen on their City Connect uniforms
• Chicago White Sox team exclusive blends three decades of South Side fashion
• Los Angeles Dodgers sneaker comes sprinkled with Hollywood Palm Trees
• Miami Marlins shoe correctly leads the pack in bold tropical absurdity

Each sneaker in the series means to share how intrinsically tied to their city each MLB club is in ways national uniform schemes don't quite expose. Additional models including original hood fragments from previous City Connect releases likely will ghost the fringes here.
