9 new City Connect uniforms coming in 2024
On Tuesday, Major League Baseball and Nike announced that nine clubs will release new City Connect uniforms during the 2024 season.
Between Opening Day and the All-Star Break, the Guardians, Tigers, Dodgers, Twins, Mets, Phillies, Cardinals, Rays and Blue Jays will unveil new City Connect uniforms. Introduced in the 2021 season, the Nike MLB City Connect Series celebrates each city's deep-rooted history, culture and spirit that continues to bring the clubs and their communities together.
In addition to the new City Connect uniforms, MLB and Nike also announced details about the new on-field Nike Vapor Premier jersey that will be worn this season. Developed over multiple years, the Nike Vapor Premier jersey was engineered to improve mobility, moisture management and fit, while keeping sustainability in mind and bringing inspiration and innovation to athletes.
First introduced during the 2023 MLB All-Star Game in Seattle, the Nike Vapor Premier uniforms have already received positive feedback from players.
“The Nike Vapor Premier jersey is soft, light and incredibly comfortable. It’s almost like wearing my favorite fitted T-shirt out on the field -- and so easy to move around in,” said Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado.
Starting with the upcoming 2024 season, the Nike Vapor Premier initiative will be a part of every MLB uniform, including home, road, alternate and City Connect uniforms. Fans will be able to purchase the same uniforms from the MLB shop, Nike, Fanatics and local retailers around the country.
