If you ever need to feel like a MAN IN THE WILD with a RAP STAR'S ATTITUDE, these are the kicks for you.

Under Armour considered all of the elements when constructing this outdoor-equipped kick. The typographic patterned upper combined with hiking boot styled laces and pull-on tabs look ready for the trail, while the mountain bike inspired tread and water-resistant finish suggest slick road runs a better obstacle. Regardless, these shoes are ready to take on high risk runs with a Micro G foam midsole and a two-piece upper to encourage a natural gait.

Sneaker Report loves this shoe. The Charge RCs looks fresh, with a little bit of heading-to-the-great-outdoors swag and the right pinch of neon to justify it’s presence in the gym. The tread feels lower to the ground than expected which ensures a confident stride on slippery surfaces, something we appreciated as frequent runners in unfamiliar kicks. No slips thanks to excellent grip paired with the unexpected, fresh look of this rainy day runner has us sold.

Find at Under Armour for $119.
