NuttyBuddy Flex Athletic Cup

I recommend this cup to all my fellow colleagues, and I’d buy it again for myself.

Got my first one last year and I just ordered another one! This is BY FAR the absolute best protection for the “boys”! Not all catchers are good enough to stop everything, ESPECIALLY when they setup outside and they get crossed up by their pitcher and that ball goes directly to your balls. Some even get through and under the catcher and, of course, the ball bounces right to the ole prune bag. I’ve been “tapped down there” on a couple of occasions and this literally only felt like being tapped. If you value your precious jewels like I do, you’d better be getting this cup or you will definitely regret it!

The soft ridges is a much better version for comfort and breathability. I've been wearing this cup for over a decade and it is the best there is. The cup is NOT meant to "free float" as some say however. That is a cruel joke that led to one of my buddies getting chopped by the cup before I learned how to wear it properly. You want the cup to be tight up against your body. I recommend the bikini style underwear that are tight enough to keep it from "free floating".

Superb. No comparison to the uncomfortable cups of the 1980's! Conforms to the movement of the body with with no rubbing of the inside of the legs. Highly recommend.

Very comfortable and don't hardly know it's there.

Doesn't get any better than the Nutty Buddy.

I watched the video on this and couldn’t believe what I saw. The design was what I was looking for and I got to say...Awesome. All cups should be designed like this.

Best cup on the market, hands down!

This is the most comfortable protective cup I've ever worn in 30 years of officiating. Lots of room, and it protects very well.

Awesome cup. Wore it for a game and it already saved me. Just like the video says, all you feel is a little pressure. Would recommend. It worked with just the jock strap and some other compression shorts I had.

I love this cup. I snagged the shorts, jock, and cup and absolutely love the set. Holds everything in place and provides additional peace of mind while managing the game. Highly recommended.

The most comfortable cup I’ve ever used (I'm 70 years old this summer). It fits in my old jock strap and any pair of nylon briefs; will give it the movement you need. Great product, but all you really need is the cup.

Great fit and no movement at all! You get what you pay for! Even though my first impression was "way too much money", it was money worth spending. Great fit and comfortable to wear.

Was suggested to me by our league's Umpire-In-Chief. While I usually hate wearing these, this one fit great. Gave me good unrestricted movement and didn't make me feel like I was too exposed. Must have!

Thought it was terrible uncomfortable because of the shape. Did not use. Cannot return.

The Nutty Buddy Classic is a little more rigid on the sides than this Flex cup. The added comfort from this cup makes it my preferred choice, while the Classic now moves into my spare gear bag. Either option gives the best protection while keeping you in place throughout your game. I've worked four plate games in a row wearing the Nutty Buddy Flex and it didn't cause any discomfort even once. I can't say the same thing for the Shock Doctor cup I was using before I bought the Nutty Buddy system. This system is worth the investment.

I heard great things about this product but I just could never get comfortable especially the top rounded part and sides of it. I have switched back to my old one.

The Sports Science test compelled me to try it. For the price point, it's great!!!! 3 shots and held tough. The contoured designed protects the jewels.

Had the original for years great product. Which to this one even better and is extremely comfortable.

Fortunately so far, I haven't taken one for the "team" where it hurts most. But when I do, I'm confident all will be well down there.

I had the original Nutty Buddy Cup and it was uncomfortable after a period of time. With this one, it's tremendously better and more comfortable.

Have used the first version for years. Was never happy with the comfort, but liked the protection over the regular cup. The new style is much more comfortable. Would recommend it to anyone.

Added the first version to my umpire bag 5 years ago. I will never trust another company to protect the goods. This is by far the best protector on the market. It offers maximum comfort and protection. I have been hit multiple times and the cup has always done its job.

Fit is great, just follow manufacturers' suggestions on how to properly wear, and you will be very happy. The fit is a little different since the cup is meant to "free float" in the jock, and you need to wear a separate pair of underwear. Don't hesitate!! Just get it.

I've been protected by a NuttyBuddy for approximately ten years. Purchased my original, white, cup from the manufacturer in Scottsdale. One of the best purchases of my life. Have taken numerous direct hits to cup. You feel the overall shock from the strike but with zero pain. Once I watched the video I was sold. Ordered one immediately. Only had to replace it due to the edge seal falling apart. Manufacturer would not permit me to purchase a new seal. Cup is still serviceable aside from the seal. So had to purchase another cup. My most important piece of umpire gear. Definitely highly recommend this cup. It's comfortable enough to wear while working the bases because you never know! A groin strike is awful but painless with a NuttyBuddy.
