When running I find compression shorts too restricting, I’ve read that sports jockstraps can be comfortable to run in, but I’d appreciate the opinions of guys who are runners.

Wear underwear like a normal human.
Running shorts solved this problem a long time ago. Unless you're lugging navel oranges around, the built in lining in running shorts provides adequate support.
Boxers ! Baby I love runnin wild and free !!
Nothing
If you have suffered from an inguinal hernia you might understand why I asked the question.
Prefer a jockstrap way more than compression shorts underneath everything (when I have to).
I don't like wearing underwear, too much swamp ass.

The lining in most running shorts wouldn't even support two grapes.

Thanks for responding, really appreciate your advice. Cheers mate
You’re clearly a sensible guy, I have worn Adidas running shorts with built in briefs in the 1980s and there was no support for your bits at all!
Guys still play rugby don’t they? & rugby players still wear jock straps in 2018, guys wear them for other sports as well. The male anatomy has’nt changed since the 1970s so there must still be a need for jocks traps.
I like freeballing.
Jockstraps are great for running, or really even as regular underwear. There are many options out there. I prefer thicker waistbands and a mesh support so the boys can breath still. Do what makes YOU feel compatible and supported! Don’t limit yourself because of what others wear or don’t wear. =)
Back in the day, I was all about wearing jock straps. I prefer bikini briefs now.....but hardly run anymore due to achilles tendonopathy.

I wear neither. 😉
I have usually worn jockstraps. I would not get the usual gym jockstrap for running but instead nylon, mesh, or polyester jockstraps with a soft material. They are made in many different colors. They can even be used for swimming.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
