Shock Doctor Compression Shorts Review

I was able to use the Shock Doctor compression shorts and cup in several different situation to get a real feal for how it worked. Some of the activities I did where: Judo throwing and training, MMA grappling (worked well), and actually umpired a baseball game with them.

I believe Shock Doctor was trying to come up with a totally new design with this product.  And even through I give them an A for effort they won’t be getting an A for their product!  If it is possible to buy just the compression shorts alone I would highly suggest that.  Because, when you use these items together they don’t work well together.

Bad Design by Shock Doctor

I don’t like the fact that the cup sits outside of the compression shorts.  So, the cup doesn’t fit very tight and there is a chance that ‘things’ can get in between the cup and your groin so when you get punched or kicked in the groin WATCH OUT!  So, in short you can get stuff pinched if the cup doesn’t fit tight against your groin.

I have to admit that the compression shorts I bought were a little to large for my size, so they weren’t as tight as normal compression shorts.   However, I ordered a large like I do with most other compression shorts so I am not sure what sizing they are using.
