Until recently, larger-size condoms were only made out of latex, leaving the larger-than-average, latex-allergenic, safer-sex minded consumer out of luck. Ansell, the makers of Lifestyles SKYN condoms, has recently released a roomier polyisoprene version, the first ever larger-size non-latex condom. Polyisoprene has the advantage of being stretchy like latex (unlike the more traditional non-latex option, polyurethane) but is safe for people with latex allergies or sensitivities to use. For a relatively small (but large?) demographic, this product launch comes as big news.
