I was reading this thread, scratching my head. Then I realized the difference between most (?) American men and European men.

I'm on vacation in Chicago and the temperatures have fallen off. It's down in the mid to low 30's. I ran yesterday morning with tights, long sleeve shirt, thing gloves, and ear warmer. About 40 minutes into my run, I realized that my penis was near frozen! The rest of my body was fine so I wasn't under dressed just couldn't keep my manhood warm. I'm assuming it was from the air movement through the tights.

My question is, what do y'all wear under your tights to keep the family jewels at a comfortable temperature?

I remember learning the hard way when I got to Winnipeg for a year.

My solution: Wear 3 socks.

I only swim.
I used to run. (31:09 10k)
I never did Triathlon.
Sue me.

Not sure for the cold but where I live it rains a lot so many guys wear a condom to keep it dry while running or biking.

I didn't read all the comments, but I had the same problem.

I solved it with "Löffler transtex Boxershort" and "Löffler transtex windstopper Boxershort".
If it's really cold, I use both at the same time - never ever had a problem anymore.

I don't know, if there's something similar in your area. I hope, it helped.

I didn't even read anything else in this thread. 45 years ago I lived in the Chicago area . . . we had something like 23 days where the high never went above zero - we just put a tube sock over it and we were fine. Toughen up!

Tube sock? What about the other half?

Gore makes boxers with a windproof patch that protects your junk. I had the same issue as OP and, honestly, these boxers changed my life. Created an account on this forum just to post this.

Finnish Skier Remi Lindholm Suffers 'Frozen' Penis In Winter Olympics Cross-Country Race


"The pain was unbearable" when his body parts began to thaw, the athlete said.
By Ron Dicker

Cross-country skier Remi Lindholm said he suffered a “little bit frozen” penis in a race Saturday at the Beijing Winter Olympics, Reuters reported.


“You can guess which body part was a little bit frozen when I finished. ... It was one of the worst competitions I’ve been in. It was just about battling through,” Lindholm told Finnish media, per the wire service.


Lindholm’s dilemma was prolonged in the extreme cold and wind. He finished 28th in the 50-kilometer mass start race, which was shortened to 30 km due to the weather. He trailed the winner, Russian Alexander Bolshunov, by 4 minutes and nearly 23 seconds.


He applied a heat pack to his groin afterward but “when the body parts started to warm up after the finish, the pain was unbearable,” he added, per Reuters.


The 24-year-old competed in two other races earlier in the games, finishing well off the pace.

Does anyone know what type of tape the cross country skiers put on their face to stop frostbite? I normally wear a full face balaclava, which can be uncomfortable and difficult to breathe through.

In all seriousness, I have found Gorewear short and tights to be very helpful in the cold groin prevention. They have a windbloc panel in the front which helps tremendously.

They used KT tape despite it not being proven to work for this purpose. Some are sponsored by KT so that may have come to play.

You'd think that someone that has been doing this for years might be aware of how to protect himself from that. Or at least know somebody that could have helped him out.

No, his post was about a bike ride, not a run, and is way more than 5 years old.

Thanks. So they are just like Triathlete professionals :)

"KT Tape doesn’t endorse the use of kinesiology tape on the face as it isn’t clinically tested, and the adhesive that works so well to keep tape in place to provide long-lasting muscle and joint support can be a bit more difficult to remove from the delicate skin on the face,"

I find stockings work better than socks for me. Keeps my penis more jolly and much more comfortable fit.

Cycle commuting in -14 C I used to pop a plastic sandwich bag down the front of my bike shorts (just flat, not trying to wrap around). Was enough to block the wind and trap a bit of heat. The little plastic wrappers that disposable cutlery came/comes in used to be great to put inside gloves to achieve the same for my outer two fingers on each hand that tended to get colder than the others.

Water bottle turned into a slushy, but I was actually a bit warm by time I got there.
