So, update on my two new acquisitions.
C-in2 Jock: Wore it all day Thursday and to bed Thursday evening. Very comfortable, almost on par with a spandex Golberg for comfort. We will see how it goes, but this will end up in my top ten at least, maybe my top 5.
Vintage Tru-Fit jock: Well, the package says "Soft/Breathable" and damn sure they're right. I wore it all day Friday and to bed Friday night. Most comfortable jock I own to sleep in. I'm still wearing it now, but will change after I take a shower in a little bit. Probably the softest pouch of all my jocks. Wearing it outside while working in the heat yesterday, there was no perspiration buildup in my crotch, and it didn't feel steamy either. Really nice. I'd like the pouch to be just a tad more supportive, but overall this jock is still great.
The pouch seems like it might be prone to runs or snags... IDK. I'll find out. I either hand wash or wash in the washer on cold in a net bag, so that shouldn't be too much of an issue.
The packaging says that it was distributed by Kmart. Wow. I've despised Kmart for much of my life. The lighting in their stores hurt my eyes, so I shopped elsewhere. I can't believe this was a Kmart brand jock.
My only negative about this jock was that it had a small hole where the pouch met the waistband. As the seller was kind enough to accept my offer of less than 50% of their asking price, I didn't even contact them. I just got out my sewing kit and stitched it back up. I have no idea if this was either a manufacturing defect, or was it just shit happens when textiles are stored unused for 30 years.
Anyway, this is a fantastic jock, and one worthy of putting back into production. Really wish these were made in black. Would be perfect to wear under my mesh motorcycle pants.
Overall, both of these are definitely in my top 10, and maybe even top 5, so look for an update of my jock ranking thread in the near future after I get a couple of wash/wear cycles in. Here's a link to it for anyone who wants to see my current rankings. I've acquired several jocks since I created this thread, so it is due for an update soon anyway.
