Skill-wise, chances are you’ll never even come close to touching Calvin “Megatron” Johnson on the football field. But thanks to the latest CJ81 collection from Nike, you can train in the same gear as Megatron.

Much like Johnson’s lethal combination of physical talent and mental toughness, the training gear for the Detroit Lions’ wide receiver is a force to be reckoned with. Drawing inspiration from the Hasbro Transformers of the ‘80s, the high performance collection includes: CJ81 Nike Air Max Flyposite, CJ81 Nike Huarache Free Shield, CJ81 Nike Vapor Jet Glove 2.0, CJ81 Nike Vapor Football Sock, CJ81 Nike True Adjustable Hat, and the CJ81 Nike KO Hoody.

The limited collection will hit stores on November 23rd. Gear up at Nike Yardline at Champ Sports, or at Eastbay. The entire lineup is quite legit, but the Pro Combat-infused Vapor Socks are damn impressive. The grid-patterned design on the kicks aren't too shabby either.

Check back soon for a detailed breakdown of the gear.
