Jockstrap

A jockstrap is a men’s undergarment designed to support the genitals and protect the groin, originally created for athletes to prevent injuries during physical activity. It consists of an elastic waistband and a pouch (usually made of fabric or mesh) that holds the testicles in place. In a sexual or fetish context, the jockstrap is sometimes worn for its aesthetic appeal, emphasizing masculinity and muscle definition, or as part of role-play and power dynamics. It can be found in decorative, leather, or cut-out styles, intended for visual or physical stimulation. The jockstrap also holds symbolic value in gay and BDSM cultures, often associated with exhibitionism and clothing fetishism.
