How to Measure a Boy for an Athletic Supporter
- 1). Measure the boy's waist with a measuring tape. The waistband of the athletic supporter is wide and should have a comfortable snug fit. The waist size is what determines the size of the supporter.
- 2). Take the athletic supporter home and check the fit of the leg straps and pouch by trying on the supporter. The only way to measure the correct size is to actually put on the supporter. The waistband does not relate to the size of the leg straps or pouch.
- 3). Try the next-largest waist size if the leg straps and pouch are too tight. The straps should fit well and move with his body. The pouch should not fit tightly but have a snug easy fit that holds the genitals close to the body.
