FAQs
Does the abdominal guard come with these shorts?
No, the abdominal guard is sold separately. The shorts feature the internal pouch required to hold the guard.
Can these shorts be worn under regular trousers?
Yes, they are designed to be worn as a base layer underneath cricket whites or other sports pants.
How do I determine my size?
Refer to the standard Kookaburra waist measurement guide, ensuring a snug fit for optimal support without restricting circulation.
Are these suitable for sports other than cricket?
While optimized for cricket, they provide effective support for any sport requiring a protective cup or guard.
Can I tumble dry these shorts?
It is not recommended. Air drying is safer for the fabric and helps preserve the elasticity of the waistband.
Troubleshooting
Abdominal guard shifts during movement
Ensure you are using the correct size of abdominal guard and that it is fully seated at the bottom of the internal pouch.
Elastic waistband losing tension
Avoid using fabric softeners during wash cycles, as they can cause the elastic fibers to break down prematurely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Kookaburra Jock Shorts, simply insert your standard cricket abdominal guard into the front pouch before putting the shorts on. Ensure the curved edge of the guard is facing inward toward the body for maximum comfort and safety. Regarding care, it is best to machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle inside a laundry bag to protect the integrity of the elastic waistband and pouch fabric. Avoid using heavy bleach or high-heat tumble drying, as these can degrade the performance materials. Air drying is recommended to maintain the garment's shape and support level over time.
