Durable Sweatproof Headphone Engineered with Adaptive Noise Cancelling and 45-Hours of Playtime

STAMFORD, CT - JBL and Under Armour reunite once again with the latest edition to its exclusive Project Rock collection: Under Armour Project Rock Over-Ear Training Headphones - Engineered by JBL, a durable sweat-session-friendly headphone custom-engineered for intense workouts.

The UA Project Rock Over-Ear Training Headphone is designed for the grind with JBL Charged Sound providing maximum motivation and amplified bass, finely tuned by "The Rock" himself. Its Adaptive Noise Cancelling feature enables fitness enthusiasts to focus on their workout by controlling background noise levels, and with the simple touch of a button, TalkThru and Ambient Aware technologies can be activated. With TalkThru, music is lowered to allow for quick conversations with workout partners, while Ambient Aware provides a more immersive listening experience for surrounding sounds in or outside of the gym.

Engineered with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, athletes will never miss a rep with the hands-free voice control. With the dedicated JBL Headphone App, users can set their preferred voice assistant to help with changing the playlist, checking the weather or pumping up the volume, allowing users to focus on hitting a new personal record, instead of fiddling with buttons or wires.

Outfitted with an IPX4 rating, this headphone is built to withstand the sweatiest and toughest workouts. With Under Armour's unique fabric technologies and materials, the UA Storm Super Grip provides maximum stability and security, while the UA SuperVent delivers breathability so athletes can stay cool and dry with the durable, fast-drying cushions. The cushions are also easily removable and hand washable for optimal performance.

UA Project Rock Over-Ear Training Headphone is also equipped with a Speed Charge Battery, allowing fitness enthusiasts to juice up their headphone for two hours of playback time in just five minutes. When fully charged, the headphones have up to 45 hours of playtime.

"The UA Project Rock Over-Ear Headphone - Engineered by JBL ensures everyday athletes have access to superior sound quality with rugged durability, built to last during the toughest workout sessions," said Pascal Van Laer, Vice President and General Manager, Headphones and Wearables at HARMAN. "Fined tuned with Dwayne Johnson's audio preferences and built with Under Armour's proprietary technology, this headphone makes for a perfect addition to our continued partnership with UA."
