Old School Jock Straps

How many men still own/wear an old school jock strap? If you do, is it for physical activity (gym or swimming) or is it sexual attire. What does your partner think about it?

I own a few and have worn them both for the gym and for fun. Speaking of "old school," I also still have one of mine from high school, but I know that old elastic wouldn't survive trying it on even if I could still fit in it.

I mostly wore old school jock straps in middle school, high school, and college PE classes about 50 years ago.

Maybe I wore one a few times to play squash at the YMCA about 20 tears ago.

I think I wore one once or twice for fun doing a striptease for my wife.

In high school, we used to call a jockstrap an under-the-butt-nut hut.

And we called a woman's bra an over-the-shoulder-boulder holder.

Of course, we thought we were very clever and very funny and very cool, all of which we were NOT.

I just bought one a few weeks ago. I do wear it when I play pickle ball. It is pretty skimpy in the front and has two straps that kinda cradle the ass cheeks. The rest of the back side is open

I had one in middle school and high school but it is long gone by now

Do these things even exist outside of the US? perhaps Canada?

I had them through high school, maybe early college. Switch to jock briefs when they became available, no motor hassles with the strap sticking out or getting wound up.

Bike still makes the original as well as jock briefs a google search shows a lot of “designer” ones in multiple colors, varying degrees of skimpiest etc. that seem to be more fetish oriented

Back in the early 1960’s, guys were required to wear the old traditional jockstrap in PE from 7th grade onward. A few years ago, due to a medical condition involving my scrotum, my doc prescribed wearing one for a while. I found that Walmart still sold them. I still have two and do wear them occasionally — and for play.

Never heard of jockstraps when I was at school in England 1970s-80s, seems very much to be a USA thing

I still have some of my jockstraps from Junior High, High School and University and still wear them for strenuous physical activity. Most of them are Bike with one Duke and 2 Protex supporters, both regular and cup supporters in sizes from boys to large mens. My most recent is an Elite Hockey cup supporter.

Like the others I had them because they were required back in the 60's and 70's in gym class. As an adult I used to go run (jog) several miles a day several times a week. I found I did not need any support as everything tightened up on its own.

I had hernia and scrotal surgeries in the past. I was put into old style jock straps after the surgeries for support. Those jock straps put away someplace but do not use them.

I wear boxers and prefer the loose hanging feeling rather than up high and tight.

I have several, for bicycling, skiing, and everyday wear. I think my current favorite is the Martin regular band athletic supporter.

My sub has one that we use as "fun" attire for him. When he wears it the access to his bum if great. The back straps accentuate his cute little behind.

Up until maybe 10 years ago I wore one when I went to the gym. Maybe it's my age but I don't think I'm doing anything strenuous enough to warrant one. After we were first married my wife saw me in it when I was changing and thought she was going to die laughing.
