They are the kind used in amateur boxing. Search for boxing equipment and I'm sure you will find them.

Based on my experience with getting one for my son, I'd suggest you get one of the ones with the semi-flexible edges. The very rigid hard edged ones are not so comfortable. My son also preferred the style that fits into a brief, not a jock strap. To me, it looked like a hard plastic cup, but that the edges would have just a bit of "give" upon impact, so that you didn't get hard plastic driven into the edge of your groin.

I know it's funny to get a reply from a lady, but just passing on what another male told me.

Little late in the reply but here you go. It beats the strap versions anyday.
