The latest collection from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Project Rock with Under Armour dropped today and is focused on football gear. Johnson played football at the University of Miami but went undrafted in the NFL in 1994.
Johnson took to his Instagram this morning to discuss the latest collection, including how his failures have fueled his work ethic.
“As a man who’s put his ‘hands in the dirt’ the lesson I’ve learned on the gridiron have been invaluable. Not because of my successes, but because of my failures. Because of failure, my NFL dreams never came true. Because of failure, I am the hardest worker in the room. And because of failure, I’ve learned that the hard work will always begin and end, with me…. Sometimes it’s the dreams that don’t come true, that give us life’s greatest lessons.”
The Project Rock Spotlights are men’s low cut football cleats that were designed to fit and feel like a sneaker. The smart-woven, reinforced upper tacks on strength and increases durability without adding extra weight.
There are limited quantities of the Project Rock Spotlight available, which include the Brahma Bull and the number “94,” Johnson’s jersey number from the University of Miami.
The Project Rock Football Pack includes reversible mesh tops, cutoff tees, compression shorts, knit shorts, hoodies and more. The style is a mix of collegiate elements and Johnson’s branding.
Johnson returned to President William McKinley High School in Hawaii, his alma mater, for the photo shoot.
The Project Rock Football Pack is now available on UA.com, at Under Armour Brand Houses and select global retailers.
