With a quarter of the season behind us, the 2025 MLB campaign is in full swing. It’s too early on 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.

Now, the Swoosh is bringing that same boundary-pushing design philosophy from the diamond to the streets with the highly anticipated Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack. This collection fuses performance-inspired style with the bold, localized identity of MLB’s popular City Connect series.

Inspired by the Diamond, Designed for the Streets

Each shoe in the pack pulls its color palette and aesthetic directly from a team's distinctive City Connect uniform. The results are nothing short of spectacular. The Boston Red Sox edition features the vibrant "Grandma's Lemonade" pink and yellow, while the Chicago White Sox option boasts a sleek black base with pops of vivid green and turquoise, reflecting the energy of the South Side.

The iconic Air Max 270 silhouette provides the perfect canvas. Renowned for its massive 270-degree Air window in the heel—the largest at the time of its original release—it offers unmatched comfort and a modern, aggressive look that perfectly complements the bold themes of the City Connect program.

Where to Cop

The Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack is available starting today, May 21, 2025, on Nike’s SNKRS app and at select flagship retailers. Whether you're a die-hard baseball fan or simply a sneakerhead with an eye for unique design, this pack offers a fresh way to represent your city's unique baseball culture.

This release proves that Nike’s innovation isn’t confined to the fabric of the jerseys; it extends onto the feet of the fans, connecting the community spirit of the game to everyday style.
