UPDATE 4/23/26: he Nike Air Max 1 “Atlanta Braves” City Connect is now set to release on May 16th for $150. Stay tuned for more updates.

Original Story 4/22/26:
Nike is giving the Atlanta Braves their own Air Max 1 to match the team’s new City Connect look, continuing a baseball-themed run tied to MLB uniform storytelling. This pair pulls directly from Atlanta’s powder blue identity, pairing the classic runner with colors and details that mirror the jersey’s retro-inspired design.

A white leather base sets the foundation, while glossy powder blue overlays wrap the mudguard and heel for the most noticeable nod to the uniform. Royal blue Swooshes, lining, and outsole sections add sharper contrast, while red accents on the laces and visible Air unit bring in another team-linked hit. Atlanta branding appears throughout the shoe, including on the tongue, heel, and insoles, tying the sneaker even closer to the franchise theme.

The inspiration comes from the Braves’ City Connect uniform, which references the club’s powder blue era and brings that throwback energy into a more modern presentation. Nike translated that same idea well here, keeping the shoe clean and wearable while still making the team connection obvious.

The Nike Air Max 1 “Atlanta Braves” is currently expected to release on May 16th for $150 through Dick’s Sporting Goods. With Nike now extending City Connect themes to footwear, this drop adds another layer to the crossover between baseball uniforms and sneaker culture.
