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.
The highly anticipated Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack has officially dropped, merging Nike's iconic sneaker technology with the bold, localized aesthetics of MLB's most popular City Connect uniforms. This collection represents the perfect synergy between diamond performance and streetwear fashion.
