  • LIFESTYLES Condom Size Chart

    LIFESTYLES Condom Size Chart

    The dimensions in this chart are from our own store bought measurements, as well as from Lucky Bloke and Undercover Condoms.  To read more about Lifestyles company (also known as “Mates” in Europe, check out their profile summary.

    If you don’t feel like scrolling through lists, try our new search tool, the Condom Calculator.

    Measurement Tip:

    The average condom length is 7.5″/190.5mm.  Girth is important (see our guide for measuring penis).  The average condom base width is between 50.8mm – 53mm (width is measured by the condom lying flat; it is not the circumference). To understand if your girth fits condom width simply divide your penis circumference by 2.25 (How did we get this number?  Read here).

    Preferences will vary, but our general rule is if you measure less than 4.8 inches (approx 121mm) in girth, go with a snugger fit.  Fit you are wider than 5.15 inches (130mm), select XL or KYGN.  Trojans and Durex XL sizes tend to be slightly larger than Lifestyles.

  • The True Story of Mr. Too Big

    The True Story of Mr. Too Big

    Being armed with a drawer of condoms doesn’t always guarantee full preparation for hot safe sex. The Sexpert tells her story about the power of lust with Mr. Too Big.

    Last year I wrote this.

    It is not the most impressive post I have ever crafted – but I would like to offer even further explanation for its inspiration. Yours truly is not always as perfectly behaved as you may think. Based on my values of being a sex-positive feminist who calls herself ‘The Sexpert’ you may imagine my life a polyamorous bisexual multi-orgasmic wonderland. One where consent is always verbally given, I get rapid HIV screenings on a monthly basis, and I have safer sex items in candy dishes in my living room. This is (sadly) not the case.

    The Sexpert demonstrates how elastic a "regular" size Durex can be.
    The Sexpert demonstrates how elastic a “regular” size Durex can be.

    In the post I wrote about “some naive person somewhere” falling for the line, “I’m too big.” I wrote it with a smile on my face knowing that I was referring to myself having been in that situation only a few months prior. My sarcasm was likely only funny to me, however, and lost on my reader. So much of my motivation for writing The Sexpert comes from the frustration of never having been armed with good information early on. The Sexpert is my contribution to the universe to fix that problem for myself and whoever may stumble across my writing.

    So, the story of Mr. Too Big goes like this:

    I was out with a group of my girlfriends on a Friday night at a downtown dance club. A couple vodka tonics into the evening I see the most gorgeous man I have ever been in the same room with. What’s more is that he is already engaged in conversation with a friend of mine. I walk over and she is more than happy to introduce me and mentions that they know each other from a previous party they both attended. She excuses herself and I promptly ask him to dance.

    To my extreme delight it seems he reciprocates my intense feelings of attraction! We exchange numbers and a few days later we are on a date that ends with him coming home with me. Normally, I am the type of girl who holds to certain ideals of romance. I genuinely try to get to know someone and I am logical about if we make a “good fit.” I will check these two things off my list before the decision to begin a sexual relationship…but this is not a story of when I used my best judgment. He had already tipped me off to some things going on in his life that I felt would get in the way of us having a successful relationship. However, did I mention he was the most attractive man I had ever seen?

    I made the decision that I would be having sex with him even if the only outcome of this decision was getting to have sex with someone as attractive as he was. In other words, I was not consulting my brain in this particular decision. I didn’t lose sight of the fact that this was someone I barely knew who I had met in the seedy underbelly of Minneapolis. I insisted he wore a condom and he happily pulled one out. My only thought when I saw his penis for the first time was, “I didn’t know God made them that big.”

    I do have the privilege of having sexual partners with whom I have a trusting, honest, and an emotionally stable bond with. I can share the dates and times and results of my last STI testing with them and they with me without any awkward feelings. With Mr. Too Big I was not privileged with that same sense of comfort. So when the first condom was used up and we still wanted to engage in more sexual activity I approached the situation gently. I figured I was most safe as long as I had the assurance that a barrier was in place. I had a stash of condoms in my room – the very same Durex in the purple wrapper that I mention in my blog. I quickly pulled one out but he only laughed. He told me size had always prevented him from wearing certain condoms and my request was simply impossible. I was dumbstruck but I went ahead with the deed despite my discomfort.

    WrongSizeCondomThings continued on in this way for a few more days. Finally, I grew tired of his pushiness and the uncomfortable feeling I have when I am not proud of myself. We stopped talking and have not crossed paths since. I was tested for STI’s soon after and was thrilled to find out that I did not catch anything in spite of myself. I am blessed to live in a state with some of the lowest relative rates of STI’s in the nation.

    I think oftentimes we have a chance to turn negative events into positive life lessons and in this way earn ourselves some good Karma. My goal in sharing this story with you is to give you a chance to learn the lesson the easy way because I did not. I have since learned that, yes, condoms come in different sizes and being “too big” is not a good enough excuse for me to engage in unprotected sex. We could have stuck with less riskier acts if he really couldn’t fit into any condoms I had, such as manual sex.

    I have also learned the importance of staying honest with myself; to be confident with the boundaries I set even at the risk of upsetting him or damping the ardor. Because honestly, what’s more important? I am turned off when someone dismisses efforts I make to keep myself safe. I didn’t like how that felt nor did I ignore the power disparity I attributed to our gender difference. I am someone of very small stature and he was an easy counterpart to Hercules. This taught me a huge lesson in trust and the boundaries I must set and communicate when there is a lack of it. From the moment he refused to wear a condom I had trouble ever feeling safe around him. I can see now that that was due to how reckless I truly found his decision to not go through the trouble of supplying the right size condom for himself! Or use it!

    Stay safe,

    The Sexpert

  • Fitting Matters: Solutions for Condom Size Problems

    Fitting Matters: Solutions for Condom Size Problems

    This post suggests solutions for problem-points on condoms which are too tight, too loose, too short, too long. This post was updated 21 March 2014.

    For a quicker way to search and compare condoms, try our new Condom Size Calculator!

    A study published in June 2012 argues that penis shape and size must be taken more seriously by public health officials and activists who aim to increase consistent and correct condom use.  Researchers Michael Reece and Debra Herbenick of Indiana University found a substantial percentage of men reported condoms being too tight, too loose, too short, too long, breakage, leakage…basically, general condom discomfort that can result in misuse or disuse, which translates into a serious public health issue.

    Condom Size Problems and SolutionsThe majority of condom products are fitted for “average” length at 6.4 inches when erect (see the Kinsey report and The Simple Truth about Erect Penis Size).  However, as Reece and Herbenick found, length of the condom is not the greatest discomfort; rather, it is fitting around the head and shaft that scored highest among complaints, with penis base at a close second.  For example, of those men who reported that condoms were too tight, 66% reported tightness around the base, 70.4% around the glans, and 73% around the shaft.

    The study concludes that HIV and STI practitioners must get involved with condom manufacturers to ensure that condoms are consistent with men’s experiences of fitting and pleasure.  Indeed, no matter what size, all men should have access to well-fitting condoms.

    Jump to:
    If “Condoms are too Tight”
    If “Condoms are too Loose”
    If “Condoms are too Short”
    If “Condoms are too Long”.

    Quick Tip! The FC2 internal condom is one size fits all. Because it’s made to form to the inner walls of the receptive partner, penis size is irrelevant. This is a great solution for those fitting woes.

    Sizing

    To know which condom width fits, we recommend dividing penis circumference by 2.25. Here we explain where we got this formula.

    Image from @TheyFitCondoms
    Image from @TheyFitCondoms

    Given the wide range of condoms on the market, prevention providers can play a valuable role in helping men to identify condoms that suit their size specificities, hence increasing the likelihood of consistent condom usage.  For a large proportion of those who reported tightness around the glands (70%), for example, HIV and STI prevention providers may alleviate men’s perceptions that condoms all are too tight by recommending condoms that are designed with a more bulbous head to reduce constriction.  As our chart shows below, Durex condoms and One Condoms tend to offer a greater variety in contoured shapes and head room.

    Here we have organized a list of condoms according to the 4 “problem points” identified in Reece and Herbenick’s study.  Under each complaint we provide a list of condoms by brand that may help alleviate discomfort.

    Please note: External links may be affiliates that give us a small commission. This is not a company endorsement.  Due to the fact that major North American brands are Durex, Trojan, Lifestyles, Beyond 7 and Caution Wear, our first aim is to gather these dimensions. We continue to update.

    ONE Condom Size Chart

    ONE Condoms have a few perks that make them stick out from the rest.  First, when it comes to looks, they think outside the square with round packaging and trendy designs that consumers both illustrate and vote for on ONEcondoms.com. Thumbs up for effort to get people interactive with safer sex.  Second, is charity.  Winning designs become part of their world-wide packaging and a donation of 5000 condoms are made to a non-profit organization of the winner’s choice.

    Fun is a big part of this condom- they feature hundreds of colors and shapes and textures.  In general, however, they only offer two sizes:

    Regular (Base width: 2.1”/53mm.  Length: 7.5”/190mm)
    and Large (Base width: 2.2”/56mm. Length: 7.8”/200mm).

    For a comparative search of condoms (without the long lists) try out Condom Calculator!

    But keep in mind that size is not everything.  Shape is important too.  ONE Condoms feature some unique shapes to solve fitting ills.  For example, if you are experiencing tight constriction around the head, but the length and shaft are fine, try the dome shape or pleasure pouch or flare shape.  See more details below.  And check out our Fitting Solutions Guide for more options.  The best thing to do is experiment and try new styles.

    ONE does not make non-latex condoms.  Lifestyles SKYN Large is the only XL non-latex condom sold at US stores.  There currently are no non-latex snug fits on the market, so it is a matter of trying different shapes and designs.  Both Durex and Lifestyles have a better variety of non-latex condoms.

    Regular/latex

    ONE Classic Select Designer

    This ONE stands out from the rest as the most normal, straight walled condom compared to ONE’s trendy reputation.
    Base width: 2.0”/52.89mm
    Length: 7.5”/190mm

    ONE Super Sensitive

    Offers same length as regular condoms but extra smooth.
    Advertised as 50% more lubricant (perhaps this is an upgrade from 2008 when a member of CM reviewed it).
    Base width: 2.1”/53mm
    Length: 7.5”/190mm

    ONE Tantric Pleasure

    Decorated with oriental-design ribbing, this is one for the most intricate looking jonnies.

    Base width: 2.1”/53mm
    Length: 7.5”/190mm

    Length: 7.5”/190mm

    ONE Pleasure Dome

    Length: 7.5”/190mm

    This is the latest edition of our condom size chart with the latest ONE condom products.  During our research we noticed that some condom retail sites give conflicting measurements for the same condom.  So, we gathered our information from the companies themselves and verified sizes with retailers including Undercover Condoms and Condom Jungle.  If you come across a falsely measured product, let us know!

    Condom Size Chart has been Updated

    iStock_000008877505XSmallCondom Monologues is thrilled to announce that our Condom Size Chart is up-to-date!  This is our most popular post so we think it crucial to keep it spick and span.  It includes objective measurements researched by CM’s staff of all the latest condom products from North America’s top three brands: Trojan, Durex and LifeStyles. And we provide links to other works at CM depending on how in-depth you want to know your condom before using.

    This is not a company endorsement.  We do not cater support for one condom company over another.  Instead we offer this as a map to help guide through the frustrating aisle of condoms where each product self-proclaims to be the “Thinnest”, “Most Sensitive”, “Ultra Pleasure” out there. We hope this size chart continues to help find suitable condoms and experience new pleasures.

  • TROJAN Condoms Size Chart

    TROJAN Condoms Size Chart

    trojan condom size chartTrojan’s website offers a full view of their products and a selector tool to help you find the lubrication and material combo that suits you best.

    However, their sizes are not as comprehensive.  They simply classify their condoms as Regular, Large, Extra Large.  Here we have updated a condom size chart that lists each product according to the three sizes and latex or non-latex.  We offer dimensions we’ve measured ourselves or derived from our affiliates at Lucky Bloke and Undercover Condoms.  For more about Trojan and the BEST to WORST, check out their profile summary.

    Check out our new Condom Size Calculator (launched in Oct 2013) for a comparative search of all condoms available on the North American market.

    Measurement Tip:
    The average condom length is 7.5″/190mm.  This will fit the vast portion of men who are between 5.1″-6.5′ (129.5mm-152.4mm). A new study determined average erection to be 5.56 inches long and 4.8 inches girth.  If length is your concern, check out our condom fitting solutions chart for recommendations to specific needs.  

    When it comes to condom fitting, girth is crucial (see our guide for measuring penis).  A regular size is made to fit 4.8″ to 5.1″ (122mm – 130mm) girth. That fits 50mm-55mm base width (measured by the condom laying flat. It is not the circumference).

    To determine condom width simply divide your penis circumference by 2.25. How did we get this formula? Read about our research here.

    Preference will vary but in general we recommend that if you measure less than 4.8 inches (122mm) in girth, go with a snugger fit.  Fit you are greater than 5.15 inches (130mm), select Magnums.

    Warning: Trojan offers pre-lubricated condoms with Nonoxynol-9. The World Health Organization recommends using this spermicide very sparingly (if at all) as studies show it can be harmful to internal tissue and may increase the risk of contracting STIs.

    (Links to external sites may be affiliate links and could earn us a small commission)

    Trojan does not manufacture snug fit or small size condoms.  If you find condoms to be too loose or too long, visit our condom fit solutions chart for recommendations.
