    Good compression

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely phenomenal product — the Shock Doctor Compression Shorts with Protective Bio-Flex Cup have exceeded all of my expectations. As someone who plays competitive hockey and occasionally dabbles in baseball and martial arts, I've gone through several brands of compression shorts and protective cups, but nothing has come close to the comfort, quality, and peace of mind these provide. The compression shorts themselves are top-notch. The fit is snug without being restrictive, and the moisture-wicking fabric keeps everything dry even during intense, sweat-heavy sessions. They stay in place remarkably well—no awkward shifting or bunching up, which is something I've struggled with in other brands. The material breathes well, so I never feel overheated or suffocated down there.

    Too small

    This is for youth but there is only one size. ?? Youth sizes should also include s m l. Material felt nice and refreshing but the band at the top was extremely tight for a 10 yr old. I would consider this a small

    Top tier protection

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The material of the briefs were very breathable and comfortable. Although the cup itself was a little too firm and uncomfortable. The protection was too notch from below the belt shots. The outside borders of the cup could have been a little softer, but all in all a very good product and I would recommend.

    Compression shorts with cup

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shock Docotor Sport Compression Shorts With Cup/ Adult. Comfortable fit, they give good compression. The protective cup tends to move a lot. The material feels premium and provides adequate support.

    Great fit, feel, protection

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fitting shorts, nice soft feel. The cup is very hard for protection but does not seem to get in the way. Definitely would not wear this casually, but would wear it if going on a bike ride. Can wear it over boxer briefs and cover with shorts if necessary or leave it as is. Great to wear inside house with rowdy crotch-reaching toddlers

    Excellent Protection Without Sacrificing Comfort

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Shock Doctor Compression Shorts with Cup for a few months now and can honestly say they’ve exceeded my expectations in every category. Comfort & Fit: The compression shorts have a snug, secure fit without feeling too tight or restrictive. They stay in place during intense activity and don’t ride up, which is a huge plus. The waistband is comfortable and doesn’t dig in, even after hours of wear. Protection: The integrated cup provides serious protection where it counts. It’s well-positioned and doesn’t shift, even during sprints, sudden movements, or contact. I feel completely confident wearing them whether I’m on the field or at the gym. Durability: These shorts have held up incredibly well after multiple washes and tough training sessions. No fraying, no loss of elasticity—just solid performance every time. Breathability: For a compression short, the breathability is impressive. The moisture-wicking material helps keep sweat under control, and I never feel overheated or uncomfortable. Overall: If you’re looking for reliable, high-performance compression shorts with top-tier protection, the Shock Doctor option is worth every penny. Highly recommended for athletes of all levels.

    Works great

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The short fits great. It's made of good material that feels good on skin. I wore it during the spring so it felt that the breathability would be good in all seasons. I'm not use to wearing cups so I didn't wear it during the testing period

    Shocker!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The compression shorts and cup combo is very nice. To be able to find both of them in one package at this quality is awesome! If you know your sizes everything fits well. The movability and breathability are perfect for all contact sports or any sport at all really! Definitely a quality product.

    Great fit

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Shock Doctor Sport Compression Shorts with Cup for a while now, and they’ve definitely delivered. The compression fit is comfortable and keeps everything in place, while the material is breathable, so I don’t feel overheated during intense activities. The included Bio-Flex cup provides solid protection for contact sports, and it stays securely in place for the most part. The only downside is that the cup can sometimes shift a bit, but it’s not a dealbreaker. Overall, these are a great choice for anyone needing both comfort and protection in one.

    All in one shorts for any sport !

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] “I received these products for free from Influenster and the brand(s) in exchange for my honest review.” These are some of the best compression shorts I’ve ever worn! I play soccer regularly with friends, and these shorts have been a game-changer. Normally, my legs feel exhausted after all the running, but the compression really helps reduce fatigue and keeps me feeling more energized , very breathable , true to size . The built-in cup is extremely comfortable and offers great protection—it’s so well-designed that I hardly even notice I’m wearing it. Beyond sports, I also wear these shorts to work when I have 12+ hour shifts on my feet, and they provide great support throughout the day. Overall, I highly recommend them!

    Great product by shock doctor sports.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exactly what I needed to play cricket this summer. Used it once last week during the game and what I tell you boys, very very comfortable. Only I feel I got one size bigger when I open the package but it’s fits perfectly. The guard is very strong and you’ll feel 100% protected while playing. Feels very much comfortable while running and I didn’t feel any shocks.

    Flexible!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start I have never tried shorts with a cup before, this is my first! I definitely came at the perfect time for some extra sports around the community so put use to em! They for sure fit true to size and feels comfortable around all areas and doesn’t have that overly tight feeling around the thighs or inner cuff. I would recommend if you’re looking for something light, and flexible! 10 out of 10!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommend – Comfortable & Breath

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried a few different compression shorts with a cup, and this pair really stands out. The fit is snug without being restrictive, and the material is super breathable — I stayed cool and dry even during intense workouts. The cup stays securely in place and offers solid protection without digging in or shifting around, which is a big win.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really comfortable fit and mobility. Enjoyed wearing this playing sports. I had my doubts, but these shorts definitely helped me move more fluidly during sports like soccer and softball, and when I worked out at the gym. I would highly recommend.
