| Shaving shouldn't be feared. Instead, it should be a simple morning ritual that leaves you refreshed, revitalized and ready to face the day. A superior shave requires about 15 minutes -- and is best when using quality shaving products and techniques. |

Choosing the Right Sports Underwear
Since the invention of the first jockstrap over 125 years ago, a wide variety of protective underwear for men has been developed. Our selection of jockstraps, briefs, cups and compression shorts will fit the needs of athletes in all sports. Choosing a garment that is right for you depends upon the sports you’re playing and how much protection you want.
Some guys risk it and never wear a cup or jock while others wouldn’t think of going out onto the field without them. Hard cups are highly recommended for both football and baseball, narrow waistband supporters for running and swimming. Some wrestlers wear jocks and soft cups, some don’t. It’s really up to you to decide how much protection and support you want and what you are comfortable wearing.
Many athletes wear more than one pair of underwear at the same time: wearing a pair of compression shorts under a hard cup and strap, a jockstrap over a pair of briefs or a soft cup slipped into a regular jock.
Choosing the Right Size
Except for suspensories, the products we carry are sized according to waist size, not the pouch or cup size. Jock support pouches are made out of material designed to fit all men and boys.
You can use the size selector on the product ordering pages to select your waist size. If your waist size falls on the borderline between two sizes, choose the larger or smaller size depending upon how snugly you like your jock to hold you. For example, if a jockstrap is available in Small (26-32) and Medium (32-38) and your waist size is 32 inches, choose the bigger or smaller size based on how tightly you like the jock to fit. We carry a variety of styles so that you can choose a design that fits the sport and sizing needs of any man or boy.
Also, keep in mind that most jocks will shape themselves to fit you after repeated workouts and laundering. Like a good pair of jeans, they stretch and adapt over time to fit the shape of your body.
A Note of Caution
The protective garments offered here provide a degree of protection to help reduce the risks of injury. Participants in any sports activity assume risk of injury. No equipment can guarantee player safety from injury while participating in a sporting event and the use of the goods we sell carries no such guarantee from their manufacturers. The user, therefore, must assume full responsibility for all risk of injuries.
Note: with time and use the materials in some of these products will lose some of their effectiveness and will require replacement. Do not use any sports equipment that is damaged in any way.
Whatever your sport and preferences, you’ll find the perfect stuff to protect your stuff by browsing in our fourteen product categories: Jockstraps, Swimmer Jocks,

The History of Fragrance and lotions goes back to the very beginning of civilization.
Invention Man eventually discovered that oils and rendered animal fats not only helped heal the skin but prevented further damage. The rich used fine almond, olive and sesame oils, while the poor smelled less fragrant but were probably equally comfortable with castor oil. As far back as 200 years before the birth of Christ, the Babylonian ruler, Hammurabi, decreed that everyone in his kingdom (men and women) had to wash in perfume.
Frankincense and myrrh figured strongly in the Bible as gifts to the Christ child from the Three Wise Men.
Assyrian warriors curled their long beards with scented oils.
Napoleon is said to have used an average of 54 bottles of cologne each month, and always wore his favorite scent into battle. Perhaps he wanted to charm his enemies into submission.
King Louis XIV of France prescribed that members of the court should use a different fragrance each day.
Sir Walter Raleigh regularly drank a mixture of wild strawberry leaves - and always placed potpourris of roses and orris powder throughout the rooms of his home
During the 17th century, gentlemen carried aromatics in the heads of their walking sticks so that they could to open them and inhale whenever the occasion demanded it.
There was nothing sissy or feminine about the early American cattlemen who came into town for their monthly baths and took to lilac water in an effort to mask the trail smells composed of horses, cows, sweat, trail dust, sweat, and whiskey. It almost seems lilac water may not have been strong enough. But by the turn of the century nobody giggled when the well dressed, starch-collared man left the barbershop with his hair slicked and parted and smelling of petunias. There was nothing un-masculine about their use of fragrance.
Prior to World War I, the only fragrant lotions used by men were Bay Rum and Witch Hazel. During the Roaring 20’s those men who wished to be dashing applied a dose of
women's perfume under their jacket lapels
Rudolph Valentino, one of the greatest screen lovers of all time, wore cologne that reportedly charged the air with a cool, citrusy, masculine scent, and he inspired a following of men who slicked their hair as he did and habitually used his very brand of citrus. Women across the country reacted with overwhelming enthusiasm.
The free spirit of the Roaring Twenties liberated men (as well as women) but they could not as yet choose from a family of products developed for and marketed specifically to men.
It wasn't until the early 30`s, during the Depression, that an American cologne after-shave was introduced to capture the imagination of men across the country. It was an instant success and was considered the ultimate "morale booster."
In the mid-60`s, social, economic and industrial changes inspired men to begin experimentation with innovative fashions and fragrances. It is during this time that we begin to see the proliferation of Fragrances, colognes, and cosmetics for men.
Starting in the 1970’s, Men’s fragrances began to be taken more seriously as a marketing category. Several companies entered the market to give men an array of products and fragrances to choose from. Designers include Ralph Lauren who offers Polo for Men After Shave Balm,
Polo Blue Cologne for Men , Polo Crest for Men, Polo Sport Cologne, Polo Sport Extreme Cologne, Romance Cologne for Men, Safari Cologne for Men, as well as the Rodeo, Haute, and Premiere Collections for Women.
Calvin Klein has also been a leader in fragrances for men and women alike. He introduced Calvin Cologne for Men, Eternity Cologne for Men,
as well as the CK Be line generally considered to be a unisex line.
Tommy Hilfiger created the Athletics Cologne for men, Tommy Cologne, Freedom Cologne for Men
and Freedom Cologne for women. Top of Page
