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 spectacular Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, which officially dropped this morning. This collection masterfully translates the unique aesthetics of MLB's most popular City Connect uniforms into footwear form, creating the perfect kicks for both the ballpark and the streets.
Celebrating Local Culture Through Design

Beyond the colors, subtle details make each shoe special. Team logos are embossed on the heel tabs, and franchise-establishment dates are subtly stitched along the inner lining. The massive 270-degree Air Max unit in the heel—the largest ever at its debut—provides all-day comfort while making a visual statement that's as bold as the City Connect designs themselves.
