Most nervous about a purchase I've been in a while because have always used Shock Doctor cups, but the fit of the Diamond was better than expected and offers more room and comfort. Looking forward to using it more.

Purchased this cup after my Nutty Buddy wore out after a year of use. After wearing it twice, I'm convinced it's a solid upgrade. How does a cup wear out you might ask? The rubber gasket around the Nutty Buddy snaps into place like a piece of weather stripping around a window and after a year of normal wear and tear (going in and out of a jock) it was simply blown out and wouldn't stay in place. The rubber was worn in several places and the small tabs locking it in place had stopped holding. The rubber around the Diamond MMA cup is much more substantial and molded into the business area of the cup and I expect it to be much more durable.

It's a nice back-up cup. The rubber sides are nice.

Great protector, most comfortable I've had. Really hope I don't find out good it works.

My old Under Armour supporter elastic was worn out, so I needed a replacement. I purchased this cup to go with the matching supporter. It is larger and much more substantial that my old one. Only had it a short time. Hope I never have to test its effectiveness.

This is a comfortable cup. Hope I don't take a shot but feels sturdy and is more comfortable than normal cups and nutty buddy. The jock strap uniquely fits very snuggly.

Read the review about taking a hard shot right in the business and not feeling a thing. I found it hard to believe but I bought the cup anyway. First game wearing it I took one right in the no no square. I’m here to tell you, I barely felt a thing. Not even a tickle. Outstanding product.

Great cup. Took a ball straight to the cup, didn't feel anything. Love the setup, was a Nutty Buddy guy, but I have switched. Great cup.

This thing is a tank! Paired with the Diamond MMA Jock, it does not move. It's worth investing in one of the most important pieces of protective gear that I wear!

OMG! I've always struggled using a cup. They either were either crazy uncomfortable, moved around too much, etc. Going cup-free the past few years probably wasn't very smart but it was better than the discomfort. But this year my wrist and forearms have just taken a beating and some close calls that made me go 'hmmm better do something'. So I tried the "Diamond MMA" cup after some recommendations. OMG it's comfortable, crazy strong, and I hardly notice it, and it doesn't look gaudy either. Paired with the jock it comes on and off easy too! A+

Wore this cup with the supporter last night. Incredible! Great fit and it didn't move around even the slightest all night. I can't recommend this product enough!

As someone that is a bit on the heavy side (okay, well on the heavy side), I've always struggled with other cups due to their tendency to move. I watched the video about this item and decided to give it a try, paired with the Diamond MMA jock. I will now NEVER wear another cup again! As advertised, this system does... not... move and the protection that it offers is second to none. Fantastic product that is well worth the price!

Switched from the Shock Doctor to the NuttyBuddy a few years ago. Wore it free floating. Last Saturday put on the Diamond MMA with jock strap for three high school games. Took a couple minutes to figure out the extra straps. Had it on all day, and is by far the most comfortable system I have ever worn. Not in a big hurry to try out its effectiveness, but when the day comes I will let you all know.

Well I have officially fallen in love with this cup. I have used the NuttyBuddy for the past 3 years and that was great. But this cup by far exceeds its expectations. I took one right to the family jewels and I didn't even flinch. Catcher and coach both asked if I was alright and needed time. My response "Lets play ball." This cup did its job. Jock is very comfortable stays in place. I am glad I made this purchase.
