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 latest proof of Nike's baseball footwear dominance comes in the form of the much-anticipated Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack. This special edition sneaker collection pays homage to six MLB teams while incorporating the tech-forward comfort Nike's Air Max line is known for.
- 270 degrees of visible Air cushioning
- Team-specific City Connect colorways
- Breathable mesh upper
- Rubber outsole for multi-surface traction
- Limited edition packaging
"The Nike Air Max 270 MLB pack represents our commitment to bringing performance innovation together with cultural relevance," said Nike Baseball's footwear design lead Marcus Jensen. "These aren't just cleats - they're wearable tributes to each city's baseball identity."
Available at Nike.com and select retailers worldwide starting today, the collection includes designs inspired by the Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox, Houston Astros, San Diego Padres, San Francisco Giants, and Washington Nationals. Prices start at $160 USD.
