When the package arrived i was curious of the content. When I opened it I found a nicely decorated flocked envelope with jockstrap marked. I opened to reveal its contents: a Pikante double effect jock strap. When I looked at them they were really a cross between a deconstructed brief and a jock strap more then just a traditional jock.
The seaming additional straps were a bit of a challenge… it took me 2 tries to get them on correctly but when i did i found a very comfortable pouch awaited. I wore them to work and then the gym. They did everything a jock should do, they held me well and moved with me and were comfortable. They will fast become one of the best jocks that I own. All through my work out they held my package and i almost forgot that they were on.
I wear a 35 so i got the XL. they were very true to size. They are true American sizes. So it is EZ to find your size that will be comfortable.
I like the comfort of the pouch and the design is so comfortable i could wear it all day. These are very comfortable with not binding or stretching. It is a basic redesign of a brief and has the exposure of a jock making it fun for the day or going out.
I love fashion and garment design and these are great on both levels. The straps wrap around to the pouch and do not come up in the back. They are held to the waist band by 2 vertical straps at the side. It made this a fun jock that is creative and different. This is 10 times better than the jocks from gym class but just as supportive.
Pros:

- Creative
- Fun
Cons
- A little confusing to get on the first time
