SKYN Condoms

[bobby123 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close bobby123]

Not sure where I am supposed to post this sorry. I was wondering whether anyone has used the Skyn condoms? I have not found anywhere on the internet that specifies at what girth would fit into them. So, if you have tried Skyn condoms:
Were they regular or large?
What was your girth at the time?
How did they feel/fit?

I know there are threads on here about magnums and extra large condoms (ofcourse haha!). Skyn condoms are, however, not latex. So their stretch may comfortably fit larger girths compared to other condoms.

ANY information would be appreciated

Regular size. I don't remember if they are more or less stretchy than latex. But they fit and feel the same as thin latex condoms. There is no latex smell though, and that's what makes them awesome.

Here you go;

LifeStyles Skyn

Premium condoms made from soft polyisoprene (a natural rubber). More resistant to breakage, stretchier, form fitting and odor free - a good alternative for those allergic to latex.

Width: 2.08″/53mm +/- 10 mm Length: 7.48″/190mm

Google search "condom size chart" for comparisons.

I think it is best to try different brands of condoms so buy couple of them and give them a try.

Suggested Condom Width In Relation To Penis Circumference

Are they as safe as latex? I thought I remember hearing something about them not being as safe as traditional condoms.

Arguably interested to know the truth to the above as well, since I don't like the fit of most store bought condoms besides Magnums, and they stink plus pinch at the base. Last time I looked too, both Skyn and Skyn Large were stocked at the local store.

Skyn are not as easily found at the store especially in the Large size.

You can get them from Amazon and a considerably lower price too. We just stock up.

In Canada condoms are regulated as medical devices, and Skyn condoms are approved for protection against pregnancy and STDs. They are also approved by the FDA in the US.

Also of interest:

Polyisoprene is a synthetic version of natural rubber latex. While significantly more expensive, it has the advantages of latex (such as being softer and more elastic than polyurethane condoms) without the protein which is responsible for latex allergies.Like polyurethane condoms, polyisoprene condoms are said to do a better job of transmitting body heat. Unlike polyurethane condoms, they cannot be used with an oil-based lubricant.

I just checked and I think the warning I heard as about polyurethane condoms, not polyisoprene. Looks like Skyn condoms should be very similar to latex and stretch similarly as well...something else polyurethane won't do.

Might have to double check the local store and try a box. At least according to the net, Walmart seems to stock the large version, and I'm 90% sure I saw them at Superstore as well. Funny part is I don't really consider myself big in girth at all, but the fact that 56mm condoms are so hard to find seems to prove otherwise.

Hi MrsL4M. Thanks for your input! Based on your post, I will try these for my wife.

Out of curiosity, what makes them awesome from the female perspective?

[drfrankencock Senior Member Member of the Month Oct 2014PEGym Hero Find all posts View Profile Close drfrankencock]

Polyurethane feels like it might as well be a sheet of metal to me. Polyisoprene feels the same as thin latex. I know for sure that the natural animal skin condoms are not recommended for prevention of STDs, though they should prevent pregnancy. And novelty condoms should only be used when neither STDs nor pregnancy are an issue.

I think the smell (and taste) of latex is awful, but I like having the option of inoffensive oral sex between rounds. Latex condoms can make it unpleasant for everyone involved.

I have tried them and a previous girlfriend did not like them. She said they made her feel itchy inside.

Hi getinbig! I think she was adding to this:

Many people find the smell of latex condoms unpleasant. For some it's a complete turnoff. The material used for Skyn condoms is odorless and tasteless, as it lacks the proteins found in latex that cause allergies and the offensive sensory assault.

I mean they seem to be good condoms but atleast big/large sizes mostly come in ultra thin.

I would prefer Magnums myself.

Thanks for the clarification drfrankencock
Like PurpleOnes, I'd prefer Magnums...after Film87's post, I'm going to buy some Magnums that hopefully I will eventually "grow into"...Hopefully they'll notice I'm buying Magnums. I'd love to see if there is any recognition or reaction...
