I play a lot of sports that require support and some guys say that compression shorts (with cup for baseball) is better than jockstrap. Personally I prefer standard jock to wear even when not playing. My coaches say its up to me. What you guys wear and why. Thanks

When playing sports, I just wear boxer briefs to keep everything "in place." For me that is good enough.

In nz and aus people dont really wear either for sports but if they do, they use comp shorts. Never seen a jock irl ahha.

There is a combination compression short
with a cup but I don't know what company
makes it. For soccer and baseball I wear a
cup-its school mandatory. I'm going to start
wearing compression shorts next baseball
season.

A lot of the boys at my school who play baseball and football wear compression shorts with a cup (because the cup is required), but for other sports like soccer and lacrosse they wear whatever is comfortable for them boxer briefs, jocks, or compression shorts

It depends. Riding a bike I prefer compression shorts because they help keep my legs from getting sore. For everything else I prefer wearing a jock.

Compression shorts with a cup are cool, but I personally haven't used a jock. Sometimes if I don't have compression we used to tape the cup to me which hurt a lot! I recommend getting a couple pairs of compressions.

Jock! Less coverage, more comfort.

I dont do many sports, but my personal favorite are compression shorts. They are great for everyday wear too qnd super comfy. I havent personlly worn a jock, but I think I would miss not having something that covers my butt.

Yep. I agree. I also prefer jocks when playing sports for same reasons. At school cups are mandatory for playing ant sports too. If you ever been hit in the groin by a line drive (baseball) you know what I mean.

I don't really do sports, but I like jocks better.

both work really well. but Jock is probably the best for support and mobility.
