Favourite condom brand?

Replenishing stocks and just wondering if men have a particular condom they prefer, or if they're all much of a muchness? Doesn't make any difference to me, apart from those dotted/ribbed ones which are like having a cheesegrater rubbing my delicate parts!

I'm actually trying to figure this out. A couple of brands I've tried have boon too tight (I'm not that big).

So am experimenting. This thread may be useful!

Just noticed our profile pic is of Duck, which makes that post look very strange!

I found Skyns to be the best. Durex were all too small, and I wouldn't call myself big. The Skyns give more sensation too, or that's been my experience, don't know how my partner has found them.

Tried some tingle durex ones, it was like fucking a can of Deep Heat!

Most sexual health clinics will give you a mixed bag for free if you ask.

Lots of brands, types and flavoured normally so its a good place to get a selection to see what your comfortable with

Skyns seem to be the favourite so far...thanks for the other comments. I usually stick to standard NHS issue, so interested to hear what else is out there. Agree about the heated lubes etc, don't find them arousing at all, just uncomfortable.

Maytes skyns are my favourite followed very closely by the new lelo hex for strength with the same amout of feeling you can get from skyns.

Other than that I actually get on with ormelle femidoms. The passante version is awfull though and gives the paper bag effect you hear about.

Yes I haven't tried since they first came out when they resembled hoover bags!

Definitely skyns.

I find they fit me better (never any sign of movement not feel too tight), more sensation than durex and latex free is always a plus.

They still resemble bin bags but do have their own advantages. Can be put in 6 -8 hours before play, can help if condoms have an effect on your partner ability to maintain an erection and can sometimes just be plain funny trying to get the damn things in properly lmao.

It depends on the mood at the time and the situation.

I have also heard of cuckolds who like to clean up using them but the wife still remains protected during penetration.

Are you aware of the dangers of Lelo HEX? If it bursts or splits, you won't know, therefore you won't know if there is a risk of pregnancy or STI.

Please read reviews from bloggers.

This condom shouldn't be on sale, it's beyond me why it is. Not to mention Charlie Sheen being the advocate.

Thanks for link I will have a read and you never know it might just change my mind about them.

We get tested every 3 months but I guess no matter what precautions you take their will always be a risk.

Having read the review I take on board the point about you not necessarily knowing if 1 had broke but I found the review on the whole to be far less about the product and more about the lelo as a company and their methods of marketing specifically their choice of Charlie sheen.

The reiview also fails to balance out their comments about breakages by mentioning that breakages are far less likely due to the hexagonal design incorporated into the material.

I hope other bloggers have been able to concentrate on the product itself rather than how the company promotes its product.

True. Other bloggers have reported how the condom fails. If it splits, you won't know, as with a regular condom you can feel it and see, therefore you can take the necessary precautions, ie STI checks/morning after pill etc.

Personally I try to find durex extra large. The others are just too tight and I loose all enthusiasm putting them on. I'm not that big tbh but by volume (girth x length lol) probably above average. They are so damn expensive though.. Like good razer blades.

Guess we will give this one a wide birth then.

To be fair the one we carry are maytes Skyn and exs bubblegum flavour.

Didn'tmention them before but we do like them. Mainly they apparently taste nice lol and theh don't feel too bad either. Still prefer skyns

Skyns large (I'm only average in size)

Seem to fit so much better than durex.

Not too tight and not constantly stopping to roll them back down the shaft

Being quite girthy, and having split a few normal size condoms over the years, I found Magnum Excel and have used them for swinging for many years. They're intentionally loose around the shaft to feel more natural for both men and woman - that's their main selling point and it is genuinely true.

The large sizes vary - there's a good website that tells you the width and length.

We find Passante King Size the best fit (tight enough to have sensation but not fall off, big enough you don't have a ring that lasts for days!). They also have the advantage of being about 1/2 the price of Durex
