    Hi there

    As I get older I am having an issue with squashing my balls together as I walk.

    I have always had larger than normal balls, and recently they always work themselves down between my legs as I am walking, and sooner or later I end up in pain and need to "re adjust".

    Anyone else have this issue, and can you recommend any unobtrusive undergarment to help control my wayward balls (jock strap etc).

    Would snug boxers not have the support for them? At least stop them hanging

    I wonder if a Jock strap would help to keep 'em in place.

    I think you nailed it in the OP, you need some kind of supportive underwear. Off the top of my head I'd say your best bet might be to have a friendly chat with a personal trainer who could advise you where to get some and information about sizing etc

    I was thinking of a jock strap type, but I am worried about how it will look. Anyone else use one effectively ?

    At the moment I wear tighter boxer style pants but the boys always head south.

    I assume you mean a jock strap without the protective cup which could work. Appearance wouldn't be noticeable outside clothes.
    Perhaps compression shorts too but they're more for sport then everyday

    In the nicest way possible - are you getting a little portly? When I was a teenager I was pretty big and had constant issue with my upper thighs rubbing together. Throw some balls in there and it often became uncomfortable. I know the boys tend to head south as we get older, but if you're getting a little rotund, that could also create a fight for space down there.

    I have a small beer gut, but I am not too portly. My jeans are 36 inch waist and my thighs are smaller than then used to be in "pre-friction" times. I think the issue is the 2 inches of testicle altitude thats been lost.
