Well I learned something today.
I read the OP and thought, "Jockstrap? That's crazy; they're no good for cycling in." But then I thought maybe jockstraps today aren't what jockstraps used to be back in junior high, so I checked the web and lo, the jockstrap was actually first designed for cyclists, back in 1874!
Pretty cool, but I still don't think I'd like to ride in one; chamois padded shorts are better overall, but the right boxer briefs (i.e. flat seamed, with single crotch panel) seem fine for my short, casual rides around town in street clothes.
