There has to be a better way to measure size in athletic cups. Several brands and sizes later I know what I need. This is a great brand and and highly recommend it. But for all the brands out there let ’s just post the girth and length on the sizes “ soft ”. Bought medium that was to small then XL that chaffed my thighs, but held everything, L seems just about right. There has to be a better way to measure. Penile size chart wouldn ’ t be the end of the world.

Great fit for your youth ball player.... Stays in place and there is n't the constant baseball player cup adjustments..... Highly recommend.

My 13 y/o is soooo picky about his sliders moving around. He loves these!!! He said he never needs to adjust with these on, they stay in place and are very comfortable!! He weighs about 108 and the boy XL fits perfect.

5 Rick S.
I love these shorts and cup. They fit great. However, I would now like to buy more shorts and I do n't need multiple cups but they do n't sell just the shorts. I use these every day and it would be great to have another pair or two. So even though I give this review a good rating, I 'm not happy with the fact I can not buy more shorts without the added expense of the cup.

My grandson likes his sport unders I bought him. I was glad to figure out the nunber system and I could get him the exact ones he likes.

5 Jim F
I purchased an SD 218 supporter 2 years ago, and after over 460 baseball games over the two seasons, it is finally showing some serious wear and tear and needs to be replaced. I 've worn inferior brands that were gone in less than one full season. The comfort of the model 218 is incomparable. I highly recommend these supporters and I am not a paid spokesman!

Absolutely the most comfortable compression shirts I’ve every worn.

5 Bruce R.
Still miss the three and three& half waist band and the super soft waist band that the jock had on the pro strap that I bought four years ago and still wear yet today.

5 Ben’s dad
I had a hard time getting my 15 year old son to wear anything but his loose boxer shorts. I got him a few different jocks and cups and even a pack of tighty whities, figuring they ’ d at least give him some support. He ’ d wear all of them a couple times then it would be back to boxers. The Shock Doctor was different. He said it was the only comfortable jock he tried, even with the cup in. He wore the jockstrap by itself for basketball last winter and now he ’s wearing the jock and cup over his tighty whities for football. Problem solved. Thanks Shock Doctor!

Very effective compression short-- used with or without the cup. The inner jockstrap holds the cup in place effectively, though it can be worn without the cup and provides great support. The compression effect is tighter which is nice since some compression shorts lack that quality. Only wish you could buy the shorts w/out the cup so one could additional compression shorts

I 've tried various cups and shorts for karate, and these are by far the most comfortable. The cup is soft but sturdy, and offers great protection for those unexpected blows( also machine washable). The shorts are fantastic, and feature Shock Doctor's Ultra Cup Retention System, which is by far the best I 've seen for maintaining cup position. There is a flap at the top of the cup pocket for keeping the cup down and straps at the base of the pocket which go under and connect to the back, keeping the pocket pulled back. The cup never strayed, even during squats, kicks, or sprints. If you want consistent, comfortable protection, this cup/short combo will do the trick.

I just bought one of these support cups, best on the market up to now I have 3 other ones and this one you hardly feel I play hockey so it's important not to feel like something is in the way especially when you 're moving at the speed we move in hockey. By the way I have one cup that the rubber part around it came off( different brand CCM).

The protective cup as well as the boxer itself are very high quality and extremely comfortable. My son LOVES them! These boxers are perfect for children or anyone who has never wear a cup before, they are beyond comfortable! When I showed them to my husband his reaction was: I wish a pair like these was available in the market when I was a child:-) The old time ones use to cause skin irritations sometimes and they were very uncomfortable:-(

5 nenerenee
My 7 year old son needed a cup for sparring in a karate tournament- we decided to go with this pair of briefs for comfort, as opposed to the strap on one that he normally wears. He did n't complain at all and he had to wear it for several hours. Would definitely recommend it- worth the price.

[ Excellent quality. Short material is comfy, and great flexibility with cup design even through extreme movements. Cup also has a gel perimeter that keeps things secure and forms well with your body. Velcro on front and back to secure socks which is a nice feature as well. Easy to remove cup in and out as well!

[ When compared to other compression shorts with a cup, this is by far the most comfortable and provides the best fit. The special cup pouch holds the cup very close ensuring good protection and little movement. Even though this is recommended for Hockey, I would recommend this over any other compression shorts with a cup for any sport requiring this extra level of protection.

5 obaidk_2167
[ The materials of the shorts are very comfortable while still providing great compression and support. The separate compartment for the cup was a nice touch. The cup itself is probably the best cup I have used. It fits very nicely and uniquely to the body. The fit and feel stays the same after washes. Let's see how it holds up.

[ The CORE Compression Hockey Short is an excellent choice for athletes seeking top- tier performance. Its built- in protective cup ensures safety during intense gameplay, while the compression fit provides outstanding support and comfort. The material is durable and withstands repeated use and washes without losing elasticity or shape. It offers impressive breathability, keeping you cool and dry even during high- energy sessions. With its secure waistband and snug fit, it stays perfectly in place, making it a reliable and comfortable addition to any hockey player ’s gear.

Frequently Asked Questions For Protective Athletic Cups

A protective athletic cup is a piece of equipment designed to shield the groin area during sports and physical activities. It is essential for preventing injuries from impacts, making it particularly important in contact sports. Wearing a cup can enhance comfort and confidence, allowing athletes to focus on their performance without worrying about potential injuries.

Protective athletic cups are typically made from a combination of hard plastic or composite materials for impact resistance, and softer materials for comfort and fit. Some designs may also incorporate breathable fabrics to enhance ventilation and moisture management. The choice of materials can affect the cup's durability, weight, and overall comfort during use.

Choosing the right size for a protective athletic cup is crucial for both comfort and effectiveness. Most cups come in various sizes, often based on waist measurements or age groups. It's important to refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer and consider trying on different sizes to ensure a snug yet comfortable fit that allows for freedom of movement.

Yes, there are various styles of protective athletic cups designed to cater to different sports and personal preferences. Some cups are designed for maximum protection, while others focus on lightweight comfort or additional ventilation. Additionally, cups may come in different shapes to better fit the anatomy of the wearer, ensuring optimal protection and comfort during activities.

Protective athletic cups are primarily designed for contact sports where there is a risk of impact to the groin area, such as football, hockey, and martial arts. However, they can also be beneficial in other sports where falls or collisions may occur. It's advisable to wear a cup in any activity where there is a potential for injury to ensure maximum protection.

To ensure that a protective athletic cup stays in place during activity, it is important to wear it with properly fitted compression shorts or tights that provide support. Many cups are designed to fit securely within a pocket in these garments, helping to keep them in position. Additionally, selecting the right size and style can enhance stability and comfort, allowing for unrestricted movement.
