Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has teamed with Under Armour once again for his fourth signature sneaker, the Project Rock 4. An all-purpose trainer that can handle even the most grueling workouts — face it, you don’t get as ripped as The Rock by halfheartedly doing dumbbell curls and trudging your way through a session on the elliptical machine — the Project Rock 4 utilizes some of UA’s most advanced performance tech and is accompanied by a special capsule of The Rock-themed apparel and accessories.

Four colorways of the Project Rock 4 are slated for launch: a women’s white/gold pair and a men’s blue/white pair, both of which are pictured here, plus classic black/white and white/black men’s makeups. Each features a lightweight mesh upper that’s equal parts stretch and structure, locked down by medial and lateral TPU midfoot straps plus TPU heel clips. Midsoles use UA’s HOVR cushioning technology for what the brand describes as an impact-eliminating “zero-gravity feel,” while the outsole features UA TriBase technology to maximize ground contact while promoting flexibility and natural motion. All four pairs also add UA branding on the lateral strap and collar plus The Rock’s signature Brahma bull logo on heels and outsoles alike.

Accompanying the footwear options are a special set of over-ear headphones created in partnership with JBL that feature noise-canceling technology plus grippy, washable ear cups. The headphones are compatible with Amazon’s Alexa as well as Google Assistant and feature various modes that allow for noise-canceling during workouts or ambient sound for outdoor wear. There’s also a fresh red pair of Project Rock slides and a full collection of apparel, ranging from tees and tanks to hoodies and shorts.

The Under Armour Project Rock 4 is available now via the Under Armour webstore. It’s priced at $150 USD.
