Comfortable, almost forget you have it on! Haven't impact tested yet, hope I don’t! But have heard it protects well!

This is good protection. There is no discomfort when wearing it.

This cup has changed my confidence behind the plate. Earlier this year, I took a shot with a standard cup and I've been gun shy. However, with this piece of equipment, I have the confidence to call my game without worrying about another shot taking me out! This is a must-buy item complete with the compression shorts and jockstrap.
