Shock Doctor Athletic Supporter with Cup Pocket, Jock Strap Protection, (Cup Not Included)

My son in 10U baseball switched from wearing a cup in protective shorts to this jockstrap and noticed a difference right away, in a good way. He’s usually wears a YM and he says this fits way better and is a lot more comfortable than the old shorts he wore. He really puts it to the test too, since he plays catcher, pitcher, and utility. He catches a lot, basically any game he’s not pitching, so there’s plenty of squatting, running, and sliding. When he’s squatting as a catcher, this jockstrap keeps the cup exactly where it’s supposed to be and doesn’t let the cup point up and out. That matters, because it helps avoid that lovely little window where a bad bounce could come up and nail him right in the jiblets. Even when he is pitching and swinging his legs all around, he says this is way more comfortable and keeps everything secure and in place no matter where he’s playing. He’s used it through 30+ practices and games so far, and it’s holding up nicely. He’s had absolutely zero complaints. It’s also easy to put the cup in and take it out, and easy to machine wash.

As the title suggests, this is one of the best cups of the market. I have had numerous cups including the Shock Doctor Compression shorts with a slide able cup pocket, the venum jock strap and cup, the lobloo, and many more. This product ranks as one of the best. For a cheap price, it pairs very well with the shock doctor carbon fiber cup. Best when worn on skin, and doesnt move at all and is surprisingly comfortable. Would buy again.

Bought this because I am no longer 18 and my body no longer forgives mistakes. I train Muay Thai. If you know, you know. One lazy check or one mistimed knee and your entire existence comes into question. After enough near death experiences in the gym, I accepted reality and bought this. It does its job quietly and without drama. It stays where it is supposed to stay. It does not bunch, shift, or betray you when things get chaotic. I can kick, clinch, and move without constantly adjusting or thinking about it, which is exactly what you want from something protecting critical infrastructure. Comfortable enough to forget it is there. Supportive enough that when something goes wrong, it is not catastrophic. That balance matters. This is not optional gear if you train Muay Thai, MMA, or anything involving knees, shins, or bad timing. Buy it now or learn the hard way.

Doesn’t come with the cup. Very annoying - assumed it was a combo kind of thing. Other than that it seems high quality. Sizing is tight.

Various makers of some supporters tend not to pay too much attention to the ways that a particular part of the supporter is made. It’s where the actual support part (going behind) connects to the leg bands. On this supporter this connection is perfect. Very comfortable and not distracting. I’ve an extra large waist and am average and the extra large fits me very well. The pouch provides enough support without binding or being too loose. The price is unbeatable.

Exactly what my son needed for sparring in karate. Easy to put on & take off, breathable, easy to clean, discrete and according to my son, very comfortable, no pinching.

Fist off the fabric is soft and comfortable and that shape of the pouch (with or without the cup) fits very nicely. The waistband is durable with a good and comfortable fit. However, the back straps are not the best elastic. They are a bit loose and leave a bit to be desired as far as keeping the pouch tucked in and close for a better fit. If you use it with a cup it sits in place a little better but the elastic is still not quite what I was hoping for. Also, the seams for the back straps seem a bit weak so DO NOT PUT IN THE WASHER! Defiantly a hand wash only garment and do not put them in the dryer or they will shrink, melt or just fall apart. If you just need something to use for short training session or low stress activates then it should work just fine but I would not expect these to hold up to much stress.

I absolutely love this. I play catcher in a mens league. The new sliding shorts with cup pocket just aren't built for us. When you squat the cup tips up and does not protect you as needed. But this product holds the cup tight to the body just as it should be. The material is comfortable and I have experienced no chafing.

Despite the fact that I purchased the correct size, the size of the cup is slightly small. It is not comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

Used these products for years and this is a replacement and the original in the kit bag as a spare. Got his a few times and it did it’s job

Product broke a few weeks into usage

Esta comodo d buena calidad solo me mandaron l en lugar de m pero me funciono bien

Super comfortable. Really happy with the cup version and this is similar. It is a pretty snug fit and not exactly as their sizing chart so consider buying the next size up
