Outwear brand and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson form global partnership.

As part of the new partnership, Johnson will work with Under Armour to create a range of products in the footwear, apparel and accessories categories. He will also support Under Armour’s Connected Fitness initiatives through promotion of the "HealthBox and Record" application.

The company will also develop products inspired by the films Johnson is currently working on. The first product capsule will feature a The Rock-inspired backpack and duffle bag, which will launch in the next several weeks and be available on UA.com and at select Brand Houses.

Additionally, Johnson will now help support and drive awareness around Under Armour’s philanthropic initiative–UA Freedom–which was developed to inspire, honor and support members of the U.S. Military, first responders and public safety officials.

“Dwayne has been a key partner to the Under Armour brand for many years

and a key contributor to sports and entertainment as a whole,” says Todd Montesano, senior vice president strategic partnerships and entertainment, Under Armour. “We are thrilled to have him officially join the UA Team. His values and commitment to health and fitness directly align with Under Armour’s brand mission to make all athletes better and we look forward to working with him for many years to come.”
