Captain Ramrod's Nutty Buddy is a game changer in protection. I have taken 3 shots from pitchers throwing 80 MPH or better, straight on the Nutty Buddy and each time I barely knew I had been hit. I will never go behind the plate without a Nutty Buddy again.

Love the design of this cup. Feel way more secure and protected than with a regular cup. The only issue is that the cup seems a little too rigid on its sides. I'm going to order the Flex cup as well to see if I like that one better (but if not, I'll stick to the Classic).

The most comfortable cup I’ve ever worn due to the shape and material. I’ve taken a few shots with this buddy over the last year. One direct and a few bouncers. 5 stars. Took a 80MPH straight shot to it last night and only needed 30 seconds due to the shock to my ego. No bruising and pain the next day.

You can wear compression tights, however it will not provide the same, proper, within warranty guidelines as designed fit for the Nutty Buddy cup as if you were wearing these NuttyBuddy Lock Core Compression Shorts. – |
