Looking around online I’ve found a few schools that still say a jock is required in their rule books. Definitely rare but not totally extinct. https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/629873/0504.19R3_-_gen_clothing_req_reg.doc...

I’ve seen the light since - but even for me, high school 2002-2006, never a mention of jocks in PE, nobody dared wear them. Probably has to be a requirement again before it would really take off. And need more options again.

Hey at least they still exist somewhere brick and mortar. I think you got two categories of jocks and uses for them - the ones here are probably comfortable for every day but look kinda flimsy for working out. Need a more tight supportive jock. But this shouldn’t be so hard for people to...

I saw an old ad for Bike jocks (vintage) that said “don’t wear one without the other” and was saying basically if you are putting on gym shoes you should put on a jock

I couldn’t agree more - the briefs and compression shorts can’t possibly provide the same support. Especially when you’re smaller, I would think.

There were plenty of boys/youth supporters out there even up till fairly recently… I grabbed a few photos from an eBay listing for a bike youth small supporter - for a 14-20” waist which is the smallest I’ve ever seen. Plenty of others had sizes starting at 20”waist. Seems like these could have...

Have you just worn one as underwear for the day (fashion type) or have you worn an athletic one for say PE class?

It was a bummer to see this at Dunhams - they were always the better selection around here (western PA) vs Dicks or other places. Seems like the bottom fell out all at once - out with any variety that was left (duke, mcdavid, few bike stragglers), in with all shock doctors. And shock doctors...

I'm curious - any current dads on here now - have you gotten your son into wearing a jock? Please don't take this anywhere creepy - just wondering if anyone's still trying to pass this along to the next generation! (I have a son on the way but we're not nearly at that point now!)

Agree here, almost positive it's Mueller - I have one like this (albeit a bit more faded)

I've occasionally searched around to see if jocks are actually still a requirement in some places. Here - PE class - where it was probably almost universal at one time. Speaking from my own experience, jocks were never even mentioned in middle school or high school, much less a requirement...

Has a doctor ever recommended wearing a jockstrap/cup to you? Either in recent years, or growing up at the pediatrician? Curious if any doctors give/gave advice on that.

I never danced but I've bought a few dance belts for curiosity sake. While I don't love the thong back, I understand the thought process with such thin revealing tights. But overall they are incredibly supportive - very tight but the lift and compression is hard to top. It always fascinated...

I'm 35, straight (married and trying for a kiddo!) and I'm also really into jocks, at least for anything athletic. It's a feeling thing for me personally. Even I feel like sometimes I missed the "golden years" of jocks, and am on the young side for those interested in them, so it's awesome to...

That pouch looks THICK... I feel like this would have been a tight jock when it was new(er)!

Somewhere around age 12, I had been playing little league baseball, and took on the position of catcher. The coach had a heart to heart with my dad, and my dad later explained that I would need to start wearing a cup to protect myself. I had never heard of such a thing but it made sense, I...

I wish I HAD middle school (or high school) jocks, period... I bought a jock for fun in high school, being curious, but never had to wear it for PE or anything like that. Also - let's see some more - I love the vintage ones!

I'm trying to find if there's a picture of the measurements on the label, or another picture somewhere. I can almost swear I've seen this size before, although it's pretty rare. Maybe for the youngest boys though, this would actually be a good fit. It's not doing any good if it's all loose!

Total Totally agree. I would have to assume the bike youth size ones (like the ebay link I included) would be a smaller pouch. In fact I think the last generation of Bike jocks had boys and teen models, in regular supporters (not just cups). My first regular supporter was an Adams, in a...

A couple thoughts on this one (and keep in mind this is from someone who missed out on this in PE class)... It's interesting seeing how early jocks were required in some schools, but it may not have been impossible when you consider youth sizes. I think the typical youth regular/medium was for...
