Do you wear underwear over jockstrap?

Not usually. Usually when you have a jock on, you don't wear anything else with it, just your athletic gear on top of it. However, if you are wearing compression shorts, sliding shorts, hockey shorts, etc., you should wear those over the jock. Some people (inexplicably) wear a jock under a swimsuit, too. If you're wearing the jock for running or track, you just wear your normal shorts over the jock, no underwear. You can wear a lot of modern underwear (briefs, gripper jams, etc.) INSTEAD of a jock, particularly if the underwear fits closely and is supportive.

Is it important to wear a jockstrap?

Yes, in many cases you can wear compression shorts instead of a jock. But it depends on what it is your doing. Compression shorts do not give much support at all compared to a jock. They don't hold your "equipment" UP.


What are jockshorts?

A jockstrap is a kind of undergarment for men intended for athletic use. The garment consists of a waistband and a pouch in front in which the penis and scrotum/testicles are worn, connected under the legs to the waistband in back. Jockstraps typically do not have a seat. The pouch is typically from a highly stretchy, resilient, supportive material since the point to a jockstrap is to give extra support to the genitals during physical activity and thereby reduce or prevent injury.
