these have been my work underwear for almost a year now, and I LOVE them. I am a largish man who loads boxes onto trailers for a living currently, and as result even in the coldest of weather sweat and ultimately chafing is a concern. these underwear comfortably isolate and hold my dangling pals out of the way of both fast moving cloth and legs, while allowing everything else to get a nice draft of air from a breeze traveling up my work-shorts. I ended up buying a second set as a result of this initial purchase so that I could make it through the week. I wear them EVERY week and they have shown no sign of damage or tearing, and the fabric is still very soft. cannot rave enough about these.

Really small fit. Order at least a size up if you're having any doubts of your comfort.

I bought 3 different jock straps for my husband to try after his vasectomy: Papi, Under Armour Under Armour Men's Performance Jockstrap with Cup Pocket, White/Silver, Large, and a couple of traditional-looking Dukes Duke Athletic Supporter 201CS. All were purchased and fit well in size large, which is the size he normally wears in Hanes boxers.

Of the three, my husband felt that the Under Armour jock was the best. The material is smooth/non-irritating and the support is great. He wore jockstraps for 3 weeks after his vasectomy, then he went back to his normal boxers. He alternated between the Duke and Under Armour jocks for the first 2 weeks, then switched to the Papi's for the third week.

The Papi jocks were useful during week 3 when he felt he didn't need all the support of the Under Armour/Dukes anymore, but wasn't quite ready to make the leap back to boxers just yet. By week 4 he was happily back to his good old boxers :)

Summary:
Under Armour: good support, good fabric
Duke: good support, irritating fabric
Papi: less support (but still more than boxers), good fabric

A side note: we also purchased some Hanes boxer briefs just in case he ended up preferring those over the jocks, but he felt they offered no support at all and he never used them.

Hope this helps any other guys out there getting ready for the snip! We're so happy he got it done!!

Love these! This is the third pack of Papi jocks I have bought in the last month. I have been wearing boxer briefs for years, and while I liked the tightness, they never really gave me the support or separation I was looking for, so much as just jamming my junk into my legs. So I tried briefs again and they were just too tight. Then thongs, and they are not my thing. SO, I decided to buy some jocks. I'm currently working a labor job, and figured these might be better than what I had been working with.

WOW. I mean, these things are like freeballing, but with an incredible amount of support. This brand is so comfy and well made, the MEDIUM fits my 32" waist perfectly. Literally the perfect underwear for working out or doing any kind of physical labor. The straps are not too tight, but not too loose. I really can't even feel them after maybe 2 minutes of wearing them. The pouch offers plenty of room, and I am fairly well endowed. As others have mentioned, you really can't help but feel sexy when you wear these.

All in all I am a huge fan of these jockstraps, and would recommend them to absolutely anyone.

While I understand that all product have their lemons, let me forewarn you that these are not well sewn. On my third wearing (two washes) the straps gave up their hold on the pouch in the middle of a workout...the boys were left to fend for themselves in a Body Challenge class.....I'd like to believe it was from too great a strain on the fabric stitching, but I think not. :) Just shoddy sewing. I'll be getting another brand on my next order.
