FAQs
How do I determine the correct size for the BioFlex Cup?
Sizing typically corresponds to waist measurements. Refer to the Shock Doctor sizing chart for precise measurements, as sizes can vary slightly by product. The blue color in medium is specified by the MPN 201-BLU-M.
Can I wear the BioFlex Cup without specialized athletic shorts?
While it can be worn with a standard jockstrap, it is designed to be most effective and comfortable when worn within the dedicated pocket of athletic compression shorts or a supportive garment.
Is this cup suitable for professional athletes?
Yes, the BioFlex Cup is designed for athletes of all ages and abilities, including professionals, offering a high level of protection and comfort.
How often should I replace my BioFlex Cup?
It is recommended to replace protective cups periodically, especially if they show signs of wear, damage, or have been subjected to significant impact. A general guideline is every 1-2 seasons of regular use, depending on the sport and frequency of play.
Does the color of the cup affect its protection?
No, the color of the cup does not affect its protective capabilities. Color variations are primarily for aesthetic preference or size differentiation.
Can the BioFlex Cup be washed in a machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash or dry the BioFlex Cup. Hand washing with mild soap and cold water and air drying is the preferred method to maintain its integrity.
What is the primary benefit of the vented design?
The vented design promotes airflow, helping to keep the athlete cooler and more comfortable during physical activity by reducing heat buildup.
Troubleshooting
Cup feels uncomfortable or shifts during activity.
Ensure the cup is correctly inserted into the pocket of your athletic shorts or jockstrap. Confirm you are using the correct size. Some adjustment period is normal as your body gets used to the fit.
Limited airflow or feeling too warm.
While the cup is vented, ensure your athletic wear also allows for breathability. Clean any debris from the vents. If persistent, consider if the surrounding garment is contributing to heat retention.
Visible wear or damage to the gel padding.
Inspect the gel perimeter pad regularly. If significant degradation or damage is observed, it is recommended to replace the cup to maintain full protective capabilities.
