What is the difference between the level 1 and level 2 Nutshellz?
Can I use a standard jock strap with the Nutshellz cup?
You can use a standard jock but it is not recomended. The nutshellz cup has a unique taper that allows it to slide between the legs further than our competitiors cups. The standard Jock is set up to hold those "wider" base cups. Nutshellz figured out that the main reason no one wants to wear a cup is that they pinch. We got rid of the pinch!! Wearing our Jock short with our cup helps makes sure this is the case.
Can the level 3 Over Armor be shipped out of the USA
Our level 3 Over Armor is subject to ITAR regulations and is not able to be shipped out of the US.
What should I purchase if I play an impact sport like baseball, hockey, lacrosse, cricket, etc
We recomend you go with the level 1 nutshellz cup paired with our Jock short. You can choose from many different colors or just go with the original black carbon. All are made with the Ballistic Kevlar core and will stop anything the sports world can throw at it. Look into the combo packs to save some money.
What should I use if I am a SWAT door breacher
Depends - whats your budget. For sure we would recomend the Nutshellz level 2 groin cup and jock short. These cups are ballistic lab tested to be able to stop up to a level 2 threats like the 9mm.
Can you ship overseas
We will ship "wherever" as long as your purchase doesnt include the Level 3 system and as long as you do not live in an embargoed country. We do not know what your laws say about level 2 groin protection and we are too small to try and figure out each countries laws - so its up to you to figure that end out. Our level 1 and 2 cups have been declared an "ear99" and therfore we can ship to any non embargoed country.
