The cup is well constructed, provides excellent protection, and is comfortable. The problem is with the jock strap. While the jock strap is much superior to a traditional one, after two months of use, primarily in grappling for roughly 5-7 hours a week, the seam that connects the cup holder to the jock strap started tearing. After one more month (three total), the cup completely tore off from the jock strap. What is frustrating is I can’t find any “shock doctor” jock straps for sale individually; they only come with a cup, which means I have to pay full price for cup and strap even though the cup is in great condition. To improve the product, they should double or triple stitch the connecting seam or just sell jock straps separately.

Good quality, but be careful about sizes: I have a 30″ waist and ordered a size medium, which usually fits me with other brands. But this was WAY too small (maybe good for a 27″ waist).

This cup is very comfortable. As someone who has played baseball for over 17 years this is the first cup I can stand to wear while on the field. Worth the money. The jock that comes with it is your standard jock nothing too fancy.
Edit: The jock does seem a bit small, ordering one size larger than you are would be a good idea.

I have been using this for the past couple of weeks during BJJ class and it works great. It is comfortable and stays in place when drilling or rolling. I barely even realize I am wearing it. I have already taken quite a few knees to the groin with no pain or discomfort. I will probably buy another one (minus the cup) very shortly.

This is great to wear and use. The cup protects well, keeping me pain free after hours of cycling. It would be best to put in the cup before wearing as getting the cup in once it’s on you is a little difficult.
