We’ve been making condoms with the finest raw materials since 1929 and so we know a thing or two about performance. And we don’t just mean in the bedroom (or wherever you’re doing it). Our condoms are electronically tested for holes, dermatologically tested for comfort, and they perform better than standard in global quality tests – so everyone everywhere is free to enjoy sex that feels good with anyone, anywhere. For Gemma, even though the taboo around sexuality is finally easing up, it can still feel just a little embarrassing to talk about pleasure. This is something she’s keen to change through her work with Durex. “I just wanted to normalise the going forward, so that people feel more confident about their sexual pleasure. A lot of people don’t talk about it,” Gemma says. “There’s no need to be embarrassed about self-love, masturbation or sex toys, let’s break the taboo.” Update: Durex has discontinued this condom in general, which means that one of the biggest condom brands in the world doesn’t have any small condoms in its selection. A shame. In the UK Durex now sells Durex Originals Close Fit condom but its width is 52mm which I wouldn’t classify as a small condom. Here are the alternatives.

Just a classic Durex condom with a straight shape, made from natural latex. Comes in two different wrappers: the blue one and the orange one (Durex Basic Orange).

Clearly, there's still work to be done when it comes to chipping away the internalised sexual shame that lingers on for many people. In a survey accompanying the sex toy launch and campaign, Durex found that 16% of people experience feelings of guilt when they masturbate and that 10% and 13% feel confusion and embarrassment. Breaking this stigma is something Gemma feels passionately about, striking a more sombre note as she explains that; "People find it really hard to self love to be honest. We do deserve pleasure and to have a good life and to have fun [but] people find it really awkward self-loving themselves." Durex enhanced pleasure, which is somewhat smaller than the average condom with a contour shape to give a better fit, is available on a small scale in the US ( update– also no longer available!). This condom was categorized in many online stores as a smaller condom and is ideal for men who are average or slightly below average. Latex or non-latex Charity begins at home, as they say, which is why Gemma is outspoken when it comes to her own experience with masturbation and sexual pleasure. “You know what, I’m always self-loving. It took me a few years but [now] I’m all over the self-love journey, a billion percent,” she laughs. Thanks to the ergonomic design, it was comfortable to hold and easy to manoeuvre into different positions. As a bonus, it’s completely waterproof (not just water resistant) so you can happily take it into the tub and it’s easy to clean.They’re aren’t just for fun though. It’s perfectly normal to find the thought of oral sex slightly off-putting – nothing wrong with that, we can’t all like all things. But using a coloured condom can actually make safe oral sex more appealing. It’s like a kind of distraction, getting your mind away a bit from what you’re doing (although it goes without saying that you should NEVER do anything that you don’t want to do). We’ve got years of experience. 90 years manufacturing experience constantly innovating and improving products. We’re all about performance. Most Durex condoms are made of latex. They offer one non-latex option, a condom made of polyisoprene (Durex Avanti Bare RealFeel). You won’t find any Durex lambskin condoms or condoms made of polyurethane. And that's why for over 90 years we've been trusted by millions of people everywhere, every day (and night).

Most of the condoms in Durex selection are regular or average size condoms that are well-lubed and can stretch or roll on easily to fit most guys. However, there are also a few extra large condoms such as the Durex XXL which is the largest condom from their selection, or Durex Pleasuremax which is just slightly larger than the standard size. Obviously, these condoms should be your choice if you’re above average in this department. No Small Size in 2023 Durex Quality: 100% of condoms are electronically tested. Five more quality tests are carried our on every batch. On top of that, this condom has been dermatologically tested too.

But before we get into the details, it’s definitely worth looking at how these coloured condoms even came into existence. Did someone just wake up one day and think – I’d like to wear a green condom? Not quite! They all do the same thing, so how did coloured ones become a thing? Updated Durex extra large condom that's wider and longer than the previous version, boosting a 64mm width. The largest Durex condom you can find You should know that all the Durex condom sizes are not available in every market. For instance, Durex Close Fit, which was the smallest condom from Durex, was not available in the US but was offered in the EU market. To take a bit of a different direction, some people may feel like wearing a coloured condom is silly and makes them feel awkward. Well, we only have one thing to say here – if they’re your only option then it’s better to feel silly than not use one at all! You’ll feel far sillier nine months down the line, or when you get bad news at a sexual health clinic. They’re just condoms after all, if you’re not a fan of the coloured options then just remember that you’re probably not going to be looking at it for very long.
