Size chart & fit guide

How do I measure for a jock or compression short?
It takes about a minute with a soft tape measure.
Find your natural waist
It's just above your hip bones, usually a little above your belly button.
Measure around
Wrap the tape around your body, level and snug, but not tight. Don't go by your pant size.
Match the chart
Find your waist in the chart for your product. Weight ranges are there to help if you're on the line.
Athletic cups
What size athletic cup do I need?
Our athletic cup comes in two sizes. Both use the same polycarbonate shell and soft rubber elastomer rim. Pick the one that covers fully without pinching at the edges.
| Cup | Length | Width | Depth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Youth | 5.5" | 3" | 2" |
| Adult | 6.75" | 4" | 2.25" |
When to move up: most athletes move from the youth cup to the adult cup around ages 14 to 15, depending on body type. If the youth cup no longer covers everything, it's time.

Questions
Sizing questions
How should an athletic cup fit?
It should cover everything, sit flat against your body and stay put when you run or squat. If it gaps at the edges or pinches, try the other size.
Should I go by my pant size?
No. Measure around your natural waist, just above the hips. Pant sizes vary by brand and usually sit lower on the body.
When should a youth athlete move to the adult cup?
Most athletes move from the youth cup to the adult cup around ages 14 to 15, depending on body type. If the youth cup no longer covers everything, it's time to size up.
Can I get a youth cup with an adult jock?
Yes. Our adult Systems let you choose the adult or youth cup, which works well for teens and smaller-framed athletes.
What if I'm between sizes?
Athletes with bigger thighs or glutes usually size up. Leaner builds may like the smaller size for a closer fit. Exchanges are free if you need to swap.
What if it doesn't fit?
Exchanges are free on every order. You can also return it within 30 days of delivery. Start through our returns portal.
