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 evidence? The stunning new Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, which hits shelves today. This collection masterfully blends performance footwear with the unique local identities that have made MLB's City Connect program so revolutionary.
What's In The Pack?
This limited-edition pack features the incredibly comfortable Air Max 270 silhouette, reimagined with the color schemes and cultural motifs of the most popular City Connect uniforms from across the league. Teams included are:
- Boston Red Sox ("The Town")
- Chicago White Sox ("South Side")
- Los Angeles Dodgers ("La Loma")
- Miami Marlins ("Vice")
- San Francisco Giants ("The Bay")
Each pair features custom details, from pattern inspirations taken from the jerseys to team logos and city-specific graphics on the tongue and heel.
A Cultural Home Run
Nike's partnership with MLB has transformed how fans connect with their teams beyond traditional logos. The City Connect series celebrated local culture, and now that energy is captured in footwear. Wearing these Air Max 270s isn't just about showing team pride; it's about representing an entire city's spirit.
The Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack is available now at select retailers and on Nike.com.
