The wait is finally over for baseball and sneaker enthusiasts alike as Nike drops its highly anticipated Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, perfectly timed to celebrate the 2025 season's action.
This special collection pays homage to Nike's groundbreaking MLB City Connect program that has revolutionized baseball uniforms since its inception. Each sneaker in the pack takes design cues from select teams' City Connect jerseys - the most experimental and locally inspired uniform lineup in professional sports.
A Fusion of Performance and Culture
The Air Max 270
Key Features of the Pack:

- Team logos subtly integrated into the heel and insole

Head Nike MLB designer Joseph Fay noted: "What makes this pack special is that we're extending Diamond culture to the streets with the same attention to detail we put into uniforms. Each stitch and color tells that city's story."
