TECHNOLOGY & PROTECTION
Aurora uses SportLab, a flexible impact-responsive material that stays soft as you move, then firms on impact to absorb shock.
The result is flexible protection without the traditional hard-cup feel.
Traditional hard-shell cups provide greater protection from extreme direct impacts. Aurora is not recommended for catchers or goalies. Always follow your sport or league’s protective-equipment requirements.

HE COULDN’T EVEN FEEL IT
“I’ve spent so much money on cups. My son was never able to wear any. This one was my last resort. He wore it for an entire practice. I couldn’t even get him to wear one out the door before. He said he couldn’t even feel it.”
NEVER TWISTED OR TURNED ONCE
"Prior to wearing this he complained nonstop about how other cups would twist and turn and he was constantly adjusting it. After tonight’s game he raved about how great this one is. Never twisted or turned once. I just bought a second one for my younger son. Not cheap, but worth it."
THE ONLY CUP HE’LL WEAR FOR HOURS
“It’s the only cup my son will wear for hours at a time in tournaments without complaining. We’re big fans.”
MORE COMFORTABLE. AND IT WORKS.
“Not only do these fit more comfortably than anything else, they work. My son has been hit and the cup did its job.”
SO MUCH BETTER THAN EVERY OTHER ONE
“He said the cup is so much more comfortable than any other cup he has ever worn. He commented on how lightweight it was and how he could barely tell that he had a cup on. After his first game he said, ‘This cup is great. It is so much better than every other one.’”
THE ONLY CUP I CAN GET HIM TO WEAR
“The cup is the only cup I can get him to wear. It is vital he has something on. He likes it so much I ordered one for my youngest.”
30 GAMES. NO COMPLAINTS.
“He has used it for a combined 30 games and it is the most comfortable cup he has used without any complaints. I even referred this cup to my team’s parents.”
THE SEARCH IS OVER
“No exaggeration, this is the seventh different cup I’ve tried. Definitely a huge fan. The search is over for me.”
