Nike is uniquely suited for our relationship with MLB presto we like pushing the edges of creativity across the board, but it’s always done out of a place of trust and respect.
We take that same attentive energy in hearing insight from athletes and apply that to visualizing new and familiar relationships between clubs, cities, and fans.

The collection taps seven clubs for the initial rollout, with the Boston Red Sox leading the charge. The Arizona Diamondbacks, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Miami Marlins, and the San Francisco Giants are part of the first series. Eventually, every team in the league will have their own City Connect Jersey release.
The Nike Boston Red Sox City Connect jersey is inspired by Patriots’ Day and sport’s power to unite Bostonians. Patriots’ Day, a tradition for all Bostonians, celebrates the relentless spirit of champions. The jersey colors tap into the city and club’s shared values of drive, grit, and resilience.
On the left sleeve, a racing bib honors the prestigious Boston Marathon and takes it a step further with “617” within the bib to represent the Boston area code where Fenway Park run.
