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 proof comes in the form of the Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, a special collection that blends each MLB team's unique City Connect identity with Nike's premium street-ready silhouette.
Pack Highlights:
- Premium leather and mesh upper with team-specific color blocking
- 270 degree Air unit for max cushioning (as reflected in the name)
- Team logos prominently placed on the heel
- City-inspired patterns woven throughout the material
- Limited edition packaging featuring authentic team markings
The collection launched this morning exclusively via the Nike SNKRS appChicago White Sox
With Nike continuing to push the boundaries of sports-fashion crossovers, the City Connect Pack reimagines how baseball footwear can look while maintaining performance foundations that made the Air Max 270 iconically comfortable since its 2017 debut.
"Baseball culture has changed dramatically in our lifetime, and footwear plays an increasingly important role in how fans express team allegiance beyond just gamedays," said MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred.
