I write this review realising how different my life would be if this product had existed when I was a kid. You see, I hated playing sports. Not because I did not enjoy them, not because I was terrible at them, but primarily because I absolutely despised wearing a cup. When I was a kid, wearing a cup required wearing a jock strap. The jock strap, I think, was invented in the dark ages as a medieval torture device. I can remember as a kid being so insanely uncomfortable that I despised going to baseball practice. It was awful to put on, it was awful to wear, it was awful to own. Sure you could pull the cup out if you had to go do something after practice, but the jock strap stayed on, digging into your skin and causing severe discomfort. Quitting baseball got me out of wearing a jock strap, and not playing other sports kept me safe from the horrors a jock strap would inflict. Fast forward twenty-five years. My five year old started T-ball, and on day one his coach told us that cups are required. Oh no I thought. How can i inflict on my son the same pain that I felt as a kid? What kind of monster must I become to ensure that he can stay safe at T-ball? I got on amazon, and started looking for the little torture device that he needs. Thankfully, I came across this. It is underwear. Normal comfortable underwear. But it also has a slot for a cup. It is amazing! No more horrific jock strap. No more post practice discomfort (slide the cup out, and it is just normal underwear!). My son has worn it to practice a few times, and tells me he cant even tell it is there. If this had existed when I was a kid, I would probably be an MLB pitcher or an NFL quarterback. I would have millions of dollars. I would have a different life. Oh well. As for fit, I got an XXS for my five year old. He is a bit on the small side for his age, but this fit him perfectly. Read more
We use this brand and style for few years now, boys like it. Comfy, easy to put in and out, fits well We tried other brands when these were out of stock and had to return them, boys didnt like them so we waited few weeks to get them Read more
I was looking for something for my son to wear during fencing practice, and this seemed to fit the bill. I previously purchased a pair of Shock Doctor athletic shorts/cup for myself and wrote a review saying how great the shorts were, and how terrible the cup was. Well... clearly it's a theme with them. The briefs here are prefect. They fit well, are comfortable, and feel high quality. The cup is terrible for small boys: it's oversized, hard, and uncomfortable to wear. My 6 year old kept pulling at it and complaining, so I purchased a soft cup and just swapped them out. Eureka! Read more
*Honest Review - No free products/discounts received - I get nothing by leaving this review. This is the best baseball brief we've ordered so far. Ordered size M for a 60lb average sized child & it fits well. I'm probably going to order a size L now because the M seems to fit just right & will be probably be outgrown soon. The cup it comes with appears to be super big but there are no complaints when worn and can always be replaced with a smaller cup if the wearer prefers. I'd highly recommend this one based on quality and price. For the price, it's great! I stopped ordering other brands because this one is the most comfortable/affordable one we've found. They hold their stretch and last long too! I have nothing negative to say about these. Read more
My son has to wear a cup for Tae Kwon Do competitions. This product is so much easier to use than the belt ones. The cup fits easily in the under and stays secure. It is very comfortable, and it did not bother my son while he wore it while waiting for his turn in the tournament. Other boys had to rush to the restroom to put their belt ones on right before their turn was up which then made others wait. Read more
Loved the cup with underwear set- bought for my 8-yo son for baseball. He wears these over his regular briefs so we don’t have to wash every single day. Great fit, doesn’t slide, don’t see him “readjusting” out on the field. Good value, great quality! Will be using for football season as well! Read more
My 6 year old son plays youth tackle football and t-ball. We purchased this product for those sports... on the first day after washing everything my son walked around the house and banged on it all day *sigh*...as you can imagine, he spent a lot of time finding different ways to hit himself to see if it would hurt...In his words, "Dude mom, this thing totally keeps my peep safe." This product has lasted through multiple washings and is still going. On another note, we had to travel quite a lot with our football team and it was super convenient that we could just slide the cup out after the game and he could just wear the briefs like underwear on the long ride home; no complaining from the backseat *woohoo! I bought him a size XS, he weighs about 50-55 pounds and is super skinny; we usually buy 7s adjustable waist jeans at the Children's Place (that should help some of you with sizing). This was the perfect size for him. Oh yeah, I recommend that you buy the extra brief 2 pack if you are playing sports multiple times a week; just convenience for the person keeping up with laundry. Update: a year later and we are still going strong. Great quality! Read more
