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 collaboration between Nike and Major League Baseball has arrived - the highly anticipated Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack. This collection celebrates the unique local identities of MLB franchises through innovative footwear design.
Design Inspired by Team Heritage
Each pair in the collection fuses Nike's signature Air Max 270 comfort technology with distinctive colorways representing eight participating MLB teams from this season's City Connect lineup.
- Boston Red Sox - Dark blue with yellow accents honoring city's historic sports culture
- Chicago White Sox - Black and white with subtle basketball-inspired motifs for the South Side
- Los Angeles Dodgers - Massive breeze-block upper motif in bright blue representing LA's vibrant culture
- Miami Marlins - Vivid coral and blue showcasing Miami's art deco architecture
Availability
The first four team models launched this weekend exclusively through Nike SNKRS and select MLB stadium retail locations. The complete pack will roll out gradually through June to coincide with special game weekend events in participating cities.
With exceptionally limited quantities available, true collectors know this might be their only chance to own this electrifying combination of baseball heritage and sneaker tech innovation.
