13 Types of Condoms for Your Ultimate Fun Time
As humans we love choices. From ice cream flavors to cars and everything in between, we have plenty of choices to make every day.
So it should come as no big surprise that men want options when it comes to their penis protection too.
Fortunately, prophylactics have come a long way since their primitive origins.
Nowadays, there are types of condoms for just about every penis and intimate need.
What are the different types of condoms out there?
There are 13 types of condoms we discuss in this article.
Types of Condoms
The following list features different condom types that are readily available on the market today.
Warning: There is a chance that using some of the condoms below may enhance your sex life.
Climax Control
Let's start things off with the climax control category. As the name indicates, these are condoms that prolong HIS sexual performance.
The climax control lubricant inside the condom contains male genital desensitizer benzocaine. This active ingredient increases male stamina without premature ejaculation.
This condom is helpful to both men with or without any minor premature ejaculation problems.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Trojan Extended Pleasure
|
Climax control lubricant — Male genital desensitizer — Helps prolong pleasure and performance - Prevents premature ejaculation |

More control for HIM — More time for HER — Ribbed and dotted — Delay lubricant — Male genital desensitizer for lasting longer |
|
|
Steady Freddy Delay Spray
|
Delay spray for men — delays men's ejaculation by desensitizing the penile skin to prevent premature ejaculation |
DETAILS |
Ultra Thin
The Ultra Thin category is probably the most popular for a rather obvious reason. When we put aside the #1 purpose for using a condom, which is protection, we are left with pleasure.
To feel as close as possible to your partner you want to use the thinnest condoms out there. That is what you'll find in the ultra-thin selection.
Ultra-thin condoms provide the desired thinness in combination with durability and strength.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Trojan BareSkin
|
40% thinner than other Trojan's standard condoms — Silky smooth lubricant — Designed to help you feel and get closer — Reservoir tip |
DETAILS |
|
Durex iNViSiBLE
|
Ultra thin and ultra sensitive — Natural rubber latex — Straight wall shape - Reservoir end |
Non Latex
The third entry on our types of condoms list is the non latex category, which comprises several condom-making materials.
Natural rubber latex is still the go-to material used in the vast majority of today’s prophylactics.
Non latex condoms, however, give a suitable alternative for those with known or suspected natural latex sensitivity and allergies.
There are three non latex materials available today:
Naturalamb
The first is the oldest of all. Way back in condom history animal intestines or other natural animal parts were the most available materials for condoms.
The production quality has significantly improved compared to the old days, and the natural skin remains an option for natural condom lovers.
It’s not the cheapest option, but some users love these above all other condoms.
We encourage you to visit the product page to read about this exclusive prophylactic.
Don’t forget that this is the only condom type that DOES NOT protect against sexual diseases. So monogamy is the name of the game when using Lambskin condoms.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Naturalamb
|
Ideal for the monogamous couple — Contains no latex — Water-based lubricant for comfort — For pregnancy protection ONLY — Does not protect against STIs |
DETAILS |
Polyurethane
Polyisoprene is a synthetic material. When used for a condom it looks like a thin clear plastic that lacks a bit in elasticity compared to latex.
There is a significant advantage over latex though. It transforms body heat quite well, which may result in a better experience for both partners.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Trojan Supra
|
Non-latex medical — grade polyurethane — Transparent and odor free — For contraception and STI protection — Ultra thin |
DETAILS |
Polyisoprene
It’s easy to confuse polyisoprene condoms for their regular natural rubber latex counterparts. For the naked eye, they look and even feel just like latex. Some users say that polyisoprene prophylactics like SKYN Condoms are even better due to their softness.
Only a couple of manufacturers produce these due to patent restrictions.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
SKYN Elite
|
Ultra-thin and ultra soft — 20% thinner compared to SKYN Original — Non-latex material (Synthetic polyisoprene) |
DETAILS |
|
Durex Avanti
|
Non-latex (polyisoprene) — Non-latex material — Lubricated — Natural skin on skin feeling |
Textured
Next up on our types of condoms list is the textured category, which is fairly self-explanatory.
Manufacturers strategically place elevated texture in a variety of patterns on the condom body.
Types of texture:
- Studded
- Ribbed
- Combination of both
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Trojan Double Ecstasy
|
Intensified lube outside (warms and excite) — Deep ribbing for maximum stimulation — Premium lubricant inside for natural feel |
DETAILS |
|
Kimono Textured
|
Row after row of raised dots and ribs for maximum stimulation — Lubricated — Made of natural rubber latex — Reservoir end |
Spermicidal
The primary purpose of condoms is to prevent unintended pregnancy. Condoms in the Spermicidal category provide an extra layer of pregnancy prevention due to the nonoxynol-9.
When using spermicidal condoms, you get the same level of protection against STDs that you get from other standard condoms.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
LifeStyles Ultra Lubed Spermicidal
|
Made of natural rubber latex — Lubricated with spermicide — Helps as an extra protection layer against unwanted pregnancy — Reservoir tip |
DETAILS |

Colored
Condoms typically come in a natural or transparent color. Colored condoms add an extra dimension to otherwise plain prophylactics.
The only differentiator from all those other condoms we offer is the color.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Crown Assorted Colors
|
Mix of red, blue, green and yellow colored condoms — Made of natural rubber latex — Lubricated — Reservoir tip |
DETAILS |
Flavored
In parallel with the previous category come flavored condoms. Some colored condoms are also flavored. They don't only have a taste but also a scent.
Imagine wearing a banana-tasting rubber on your penis. That alone is reason for giving flavored prophylactics a try.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
LifeStyles Assorted Flavors
|
Assortment of three flavors (Sensuous Vanilla, Wild Strawberry, Tropical Banana) — Lubricated — Made of natural rubber latex — Reservoir tip |
DETAILS |
Thick
The condoms in this rare group are slightly thicker than standard and definitely more so than ultra thin condoms. You might ask yourself why we need, and who would want, thick condoms when everybody seems to want the opposite. That is a great question.
Manufacturers cater to customers from opposite ends of the spectrum. Thick condoms find their use primarily during anal sex adventures or to give you the added security for their extra thickness.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
LifeStyles Extra Strength
|
Extra thickness for added extra durability and protection — Lubricated — Reservoir tip — Made of natural rubber latex |
DETAILS |

| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|

|
Expose to light for 30 seconds and the condom will glow — Lubricated — Reservoir tip — Made of natural rubber latex |

Non-Lubricated
Another stop on our tour through the different types of condoms are dry condoms as they are also called. Non lubricated condoms are in the minority because they don't attract as many users as rubbers with lubrication do.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
LifeStyles Non-Lubricated
|
Non-lubricated — Reservoir tip — Made of natural rubber latex |
DETAILS |
Extra Lubricated
The extra lubricated category is opposite from what we just discussed in the previous paragraph. Extra lubricated condoms have a higher amount of lube straight from the wrapper.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
SKYN Extra Lubricated
|
Pre-lubricated with extra more for better glide — Reservoir tip — Non-latex material |
DETAILS |
Warming
Warming condoms provide light warming sensations. The warming category is tiny and is not something that condom users demand often.
| NAME | DESCRIPTION | BUY |
|
Trojan Fire & Ice
|
Condoms with added warming or cooling lube. |
DETAILS |
Variety packs
Variety packs is a category that gives you a taste of different products in select assortments.
We have our custom mixed variety packs that we put together in our warehouse.
This is how we can give you condoms across several brands, types, and sizes you would otherwise not be able to get together.
