Hey there guys, I finally had a chance to use my Jaco cup system today. I was hoping to use it sooner and review it a while ago but I was in a car accident and had to rest up my back and neck.
Alright, enough bs, here is the review!
Jaco Guardian Compression Short and Athletic Cup (without Pads) - MMAWarehouse.com - MMA Gear, MMA Clothing, MMA Shorts, MMA Gloves, MMA Shirts and more!
I bought mine at mmawarehouse.com at the link provided. I also bought another set at njfightshop.com so that I would have two pairs so that I wouldn't have to take the cup out to wash it. I chose the 2day shipping from mmawarehouse and without fail, they arrived in two business days as promised. I am always impressed with mmawarehouse and I use them often.
anyway, here is the product info before I get into my review:
Designed specifically for MMA, the Guardian compression short and athletic cup system delivers unparalleled protection where it counts the most.
Heavy-duty impact Athletic Cup designed to minimize inadvertent strikes from kicks (even coming from the bottom)
Adjustable polypropylene straps provide a secure, comfortable fit
Comes in M (30-32"), L (33-35"), XL (36-39"), and 2XL (40-44")
mine came in a little box. I would take a picture of it but it looks just like the picture above.
So, upon putting the shorts on you will find they fit unlike any other sets of compression shorts combos like this. they feel more secure and the cup covers your junk completely, not just sit above like how the shockdoctor ones do. the cup is deep and not too narrow and all of my stuff fit inside.
After securing the straps, which are velcro, but not like velcro hook and loop like on gloves. The strap is typical velcro but the pad thing that it connects to is unlike any fabric that I'd felt before. It holds very well and moves with you rather than staying static. The straps hold the cup to your body and your nuts don't fall out or get smashed with the edge.
My range of motion was the best. Just like not wearing one at all. I could move my knees all the way to my chest and the cup didn't move much at all.
While in jiu jitsu class we were drilling omaplatas and the cup did not get in the way.
No complaints from my sparring partner at all.
All in all I give this unit a 10/10 out of all the cups and compression combos that i've used.
