I've had several pairs and every GYM jock is the same: - Well suited to wearing discretely and every day (extremely comfortable and low profile) - Good selection of colors to suit any skin tone - Reasonable fit (slightly tight enough to hug your body and 'push up' on the butt with the straps to provide a nice look without being so tight as to be uncomfortable) - Reasonably priced - Versatile and suitable for wearing to the gym, everyday, or going out to the club Overall, these are an essential item- would recommend! Review: Comfortable and Supportive! - I started binge‑cleaning my closet and dresser drawers, getting rid of things I no longer wear or that are too worn and really should be replaced. And I definitely needed some new jockstraps. I like the “old school” style—not just for the nostalgia, but because they actually do what they’re supposed to do. I do feel like the size chart is off. My waist (not my jean size) is 44", so I ordered an XL. There was too much room in the front and I didn’t feel held at all. I exchanged it for a L and it fits great. The leg straps and waistband aren’t constricting or uncomfortable, and everything feels secure. It washed up great, too. I tossed it in with a load of colors in cold water. *DO NOT DRY THIS.* The construction includes some rubber content, and a dryer will ruin it. Sling it across a drying rack or hang it on a hanger to dry. At the time of this review, it was on offer for $13. You’ll pay twice that for another brand. And they offer it in orange! Who doesn’t like something out of the ordinary every once in a while. This is a buy recommendation. Go getcha one! ## Features - Classic 3" Men's Athletic Supporter - 1/2" Legstraps - Pouch is 73% Nylon, 12% Rubber and 15% cotton - Waistband/Legstraps: 70% Polyester and 30% Rubber - NOT a cup supporter; no cup pocket ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01NBW3NW8 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Apparel Fabric Stretch | Medium Stretch | | Apparel Fabric Weight Class | Lightweight | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,713 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #1 in Men's Athletic Supporters | | Brand Name | GYM | | Care instructions | Machine Wash or Hand Delicate, Do Not Bleach, Tumble Dry, Iron, Dry Clean | | Closure Type | Pull-On | | Collection Name | All | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 11,882 Reviews | | Fabric Type | 73% Nylon, 12% Rubber, 15% Cotton | | Fabric type | 73% Nylon, 12% Rubber, 15% Cotton | | Fit Type | Regular | | Fit to Size Sentiment | Good | | Garment Size Country | United States | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00851793007499 | | Item Type Name | Jock Strap | | Material | Nylon Blend | | Origin | Imported | | Part Number | 00851793007499 | | Pattern | Solid | | Product Care Instructions | Machine Wash or Hand Delicate, Do Not Bleach, Tumble Dry, Iron, Dry Clean | | Size | Medium | | Sleeve Length Description | 3/4 Sleeve | | Style | Classic | | Style Number | GYM004 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![mens 3" Wide Band Classic Athletic Supporter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vDP76M0PL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GYM is a Classic - Great, quality jockstrap for the price. *by J***N on May 10, 2026* If you're looking for a good, classic style jock that won't fall apart after a single wash, doesn't seem to have an unnatural fit or waist expectation, and is a worthwhile value for the money- look no further.

Everything stays just where it needs to be, avoiding readjusting and uncomfortable rubbing. The waistband is wide and comfortable without rolling up. It did not shrink after washing and drying and continues to hold its stretchiness. It is absorbent and breathable as well as being supportive. My only negative comment is that where the leg band attachments are sewn, there is fraying after each wash. Hopefully, the bands will stay attached. I'm very happy that I found this old school support! It's made all the difference in making my bike rides an enjoyable experience. ## Frequently Bought Together - GYM mens 3" Wide Band Classic Athletic Supporter - Gym Workout Jockstrap with 2" Waistband - JOCKMAIL Mens Jockstrap Underwear Jock Straps Male Athletic Supporters for Men --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/39986511-mens-3-wide-band-classic-athletic-supporter](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/39986511-mens-3-wide-band-classic-athletic-supporter) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
