Condom Sizes

Size matters – the correct fit directly impacts your safety and sensation. An ill-fitting condom can seriously disrupt your intimate moments: too tight, and you risk breakage or discomfort; too loose, and it might slip off, exposing both partners. When your condom fits like a second skin, it boosts confidence and ensures maximum protection.

Forget about length – it's the girth (circumference) that matters most. Condom sizing is based on its "nominal width" (the flat width of the condom), which directly relates to your penis girth. Always measure the circumference around the thickest part of your fully erect penis. Use that girth measurement to compare against the nominal width provided on the condom box. That small difference in width is the secret to a perfect, secure fit!

A perfect fit starts with an accurate measurement. While fully erect, use a flexible tape measure or even a piece of string and a ruler.

- For Girth: Gently wrap the measure around the widest part of the shaft. This number (your circumference) is what you'll use to match the condom's nominal width.
- For Length: Measure from the base (pressing against your pubic bone) to the tip.

Don't worry – most condoms are long enough, but getting the girth right is the real game-changer.

The nominal width is the industry standard measurement. It's the width of the condom when laid flat, measured in millimeters (mm). This number is the key to comparing across brands. Generally, condoms fall into three categories:

- Smaller size: 50mm or less
- Regular size: Around 52 – 55 mm
- Larger size: Around 55 – 60 mm
- Super Large size: 60mm and more.

Since sizing varies, check the nominal width on the box to guarantee you get a fit that feels "just right."

If your standard condom feels tight, pinches, or breaks easily, it’s a clear sign to size up to reduce friction and increase comfort. Conversely, if your condom feels loose, slips, or bunches up, you should try a smaller size. If you don’t want to commit to standard sizing, you can always try out custom fit condoms, like MyONE, offering various lengths and widths. And remember, the only size that matters is the one that fits you best!
