There seems to be a lot of talk among the sneaker fanatics over the last few hours. It’s probably because Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson showed off the new ‘Project Rock 3’ shoes in a video.

Johnson describes the new Under Armour release as the “best training shoe in the world”. The shoe is designed especially for gymming and training purposes. Johnson highlighted the unique features in the video.

The PR3’s most unique feature is the external heel counter. The emphasis on the heel region includes Under Armour’s own HOVR Technology. The advanced foam gives an extra level of comfort and stabilizes awkward movements. 

The next special feature of these shows includes a formidable mid-foot lock. The purpose of this is to make the shoe fit like a glove. The flexibility here is key, that supports forward movements. 

The mid-foot lock reduces the pressure exerted on that region. You can also discard the fear of your shoe slipping out of place.

Another unique installment in this new release is at the bottom. On the underbelly of these sleek looking shoes lies a stable base.

The bottom tri base technology ensures three positions of contact to the ground. This is a key factor that distributes your body weight throughout the surface of your foot. This will undoubtedly improve the overall performance and reduce the chances of an injury.

An additional feature of the PR3 is the ankle support collar. This relieves the stress exerted on the ankle and Achilles’ tendon. An injury in the Achilles’ tendon can be very painful and will put you out of action for a long time.

Other commendable features of the PR3 are a flexible toe box and dual-function laces that reduce the chances of bites and ensure a secure fit.

“Quality is important to me and delivering quality to you guys is the most important thing,” says Johnson at the end of the video.
