Compression shorts with protective cup

[RP33]

Does anyone know where i can get a pair of these.. Under Armour has a pair that are $30 which i consider highly overpriced.. but i suppose if i can't find a pair anywhere else then i may have to purchase them..

I just want compression shorts, with the pouch area to hold a protective cup.. any help would be great.

have you tried the internet?

have you tried the internet?

thank you cortez! haha

yes, i've looked around, but i haven't found much.. I was at Dick's Sporting Good's today and they had what i THOUGHT were under armour shorts with a cup holder but i came online and read about them and they're just regular compression shorts.. but i did find one pair, as i said, that were $30..

so considering i assume EVERYONE who boxes on here has a guard, maybe even uses the shock doctor cup, that they may have experience with these products..

I think they are used in Karate and Kickboxing circles more than Boxing, but they seem to do the trick and are cheaper than a guard a lot cheaper

try a specialty hockey store. not dick's. try doing a search for perani's hockey world.

I cannot express my frustration that you would deem $30.00 expensive.

There is no piece of equipment over here for less than €50.00, nothing!
Thats roughly $75.00!

Everlast.com do a few compression shorts also I believe.

I got these guys for $55.... full grain leather, the Grant quality and name, etc.

Very reasonably priced.

Alright. When I saw the title not ever hearing the term 'compression shorts' it brought some funny images to mind. haha But you all seem to know about them and I clearly don't. So what's the deal?

I wear a combo kidney protector, jock. Is this just the short with the cup, or what is it? Is it better? I mean, I got my protection for cheap from my club. I think was only about $35 and I know I get uber cheap deals but, help a brotha out...

Compression shorts are often used by the MMA guys to avoid injury to the groin, hips, upper thigh etc.
The cup is just inserted into a pouch at the front of the shorts.

I'm not going to wear a cup anymore, I took a few bad shots that very extremely painful, so its time to invest in a top class protector.
