FAQs
Can this guard be worn without a supporter?
No, this guard is designed to be inserted into a compatible compression short or athletic supporter pocket to remain secure.
Is this suitable for all contact sports?
Yes, it provides high-level impact protection suitable for most contact sports, including martial arts, hockey, and football.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The guard should cover the target area comfortably without feeling too tight or loose when in a stable, athletic stance.
Can I put this in the washing machine?
It is highly recommended to hand wash the cup to maintain its shape and the integrity of the gel edges.
Does the gel padding wear out over time?
Like any protective equipment, the material may degrade with heavy, long-term use; inspect the cup regularly for cracks or structural fatigue.
Troubleshooting
Guard shifting during movement
Ensure you are using a properly fitted compression short with a tight-fitting cup pocket.
Discomfort or chafing at edges
Adjust the positioning of the guard within the pocket and ensure the gel perimeter is flat against your body.
Odour buildup
Wash the cup after every use with mild soap and ensure it is fully air-dried before storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, the BioFlex Groin Guard must be paired with a compatible athletic supporter or compression short with a dedicated cup pocket. Always slide the cup into the pocket with the gel-padded side facing toward your body.
Care instructions are straightforward: remove the cup from the athletic garment after every use. Hand wash the cup using mild soap and cool water, then air dry completely before the next session. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes, as these can compromise the integrity of the dual-density materials. Store the cup in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
