Early Fan Reactions
While not available for game use by players (MLB has strict uniform guidelines for on-field footwear), the Air Max 270 MLB pack is already trending among fans on social media platforms.
"The Boston '275' colorway absolutely pops with those yellow accents," commented one Red Sox fan on Twitter. Meanwhile, Dodgers enthusiasts are praising the subtle palm tree motif on the Los Angeles edition.
