GYM1" Waistband Swim/Run Jockstrap

Great jock, I have tried various types of jocks, for sports as well as daily wear. The 1” waist band at least for me is perfect enough stretch, doesn’t roll being that I’m a chubby older guy I wanted the waist to comfortable enough for daily wear, which I do kind of secret sexy thing yet masculine. Yet not so much give, that it supports the pouch well, I haven’t noticed any of the creep of the back part of the waistband waistband to the point where it shows and becomes obvious.Jocks are to the best of my knowledge the only underwear that is totally for men. With that in mind the pouch is also soft enough for daily wear at least I think so anyway.I also like the contrast color the black against the grey makes them even better for daily wear. I also have the blue pouch oneI found them to be true to size and will buy more as my waist size goes down.They seem to wear well, I have washed and worn these several times. I have washed them in a machine in a “lingerie” bag and air dry them which doesn’t take very long

Runs a little small I think, had to go up a size, but the pouch is too small fit everything comfortably and made of a plastic-y material that feels a little rough on your bits. It only stretches in one direction (up/down) so things get squeezed against your body and shoved down. Leg straps are attached so that they sit right (under the cheeks, not on them) and neither the leg straps nor the waistband rolls up during a workout.UPDATE: bought a second pair and the pouch is very different... still the not-so-nice fabric, but the size is fine and has proper stretch. Nothing is squeezed. After wearing for both working out and just as underwear I can confirm that neither the leg straps nor the waistband rolls up.UPDATE 08/18/2020: As other reviews mentioned, they have started falling apart. Specifically, the elastic is unraveling, leaving long strings hanging loose. I cut those off and more come out. Happening to all 3 pair, so not an isolated incident. Disappointing for sure.

After initially reading reviews, I was worried about this not fitting comfortably, but I figured I'd give it a chance. I am 6'1 and weigh 175 lbs and these fit perfect! Most jockstraps that I've tried are really tight on my hips and not that comfortable. On the other hand, these feel like you're wearing briefs and you almost forget you have them on! I would have given these a 5 star, but a few days into wearing them, the elastic bands starting unraveling. At first, I figured it was no big deal, but a couple days went by and the elastic strands woven into the band started coming apart from the entire band on each side. I machine washed it once, and obviously, it got much worse. Maybe I got a defective pair, but if you decide to go with these, I recommend hand washing and air drying. That's not the reason for the unraveling, but it will help them last longer.

I had a procedure done that required me to wear a jock strap and rest for a few days. These were highly rated, so I gave it a go.They definitely run small. I can normally wear a large in most undergarments, but these were smaller than the usual.My main gripe is that they're only good for one use. On both accounts, and remember I'm bed-ridden, the jock strap fabric ripped in the area where it is supposed to provide support. The years began at the top near the waistband and worked their way all the way down.I'm not a traditional jock strap wearer, but I don't think that's normal.

I'm a guy who is 6'2" and around 205 lbs, with a waist of 34-35" and hips of 43", who has an athletic/rugby build and does heavy squats and deadlifts. Due to my longer torso being tall and previous buying experience, I knew that underwear/supporters rests on my hips and not my waistline so I bought the 2XL size (44"-46") for my hip size. When I first wore it, the waistband was fine on my hips, but I noticed the leg straps were pulling on my upper hamstrings closer to my legs about a 1/2" from where the skin normally rests without wearing it. At first I thought it was how it was supposed to be, but after using them for a leg day workout, I was in for a rude awakening.About a quarter of the way into my weight training (squats, deadlifts, lunges), the leg straps were just way too tight on me to wear anymore. My hamstring muscles were hurting far more than usual, since not only they were dealing with the heavy weights but also fighting against the tight elasticity of the leg straps. It felt like the circulation to my legs were being squeezed off at times.My thigh circumference is 25-26", so I'm assuming that either: these jocks were designed for those who are not as athletic (the larger waist size) and have not developed their thighs, or because of the length of my stature caused the leg straps to stretch more than if I had an average height with the same thigh measurements.I gave 2 stars because everything else was fine, but those leg straps....oh they were so painful. I have tried them again, and air dry the jockstrap, but after trying to workout 2 additional times with them (not weight training but with bike riding) I still get the same painful result. Maybe I should try putting them in the dryer to loosen the elasticity, or try buying a 3XL possibly, but this GYM jockstrap was very disappointing.

When Bike went out of business Jockstrap Central bought the designs, so this is basically a Bike jockstrap. The 1 inch waist band provides a low rise, no show look great for running/swimming. This jock is the old school Bike style, with a crochet pouch and bare elastic straps. The pouch is soft, with just the right amount of stretch so your junk isn't just smashed up against your body like with some of the newer style athletic supporters.If you're looking for that classic jock you wore in Jr. high and high school this is a great pick.

I like to jog most days and do some active sports, but my scenario is that i have very low hanging balls and find this activity sometimes painful to say the least, i have tried compression underwear but find some are uncomfortable.that is why i now wear these running jockstraps, they are a fantastic piece of kit and are not restrictive in anyway,the freedom round the butt area keeps me cool , the two straps are non chaffing and the pouch holds my tackle in place, without the embarassment of my bits bouncing around. i highly reccomend them.

A bit small for its stated size.
