LOS ANGELES—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Aug. 24, 2001—On the heels of the wide popularity of Madonna Condoms in 15 European countries and Japan over the last two years, CONDOMania, the nation's first retailer and retailer of condoms, today announced the availability of Madonna Condoms in the United States for the first time.
Made available to coincide with Madonna's United States "Drowned World Tour," the product will be sold through CONDOMania.com, its retail store in Greenwich Village, and selected music and novelty retailers.
The condom packaging shows a headshot of Madonna, taken from a series of nude photos shot during Madonna's younger years and licensed by photographer Martin Schrieber.
"CONDOMania's mission has always been to educate customers about the importance of using safer sex products, and if Madonna's picture on condoms helps promote that message, then we will promote and sell Madonna Condoms," said president and founder Adam Glickman.
The condoms will be available at CONDOMania's New York City store at 351 Bleecker St., on the web at http://www.condomania.com and in selected gift, record and novelty stores nationwide.
Now in its 10th year of taking a leadership position in touting safer sex issues, CONDOMania is once again charting new ground with the Madonna Condom. In addition to offering safer sex products, such as the Madonna Condom, CONDOMania.com has set a precedent of selling a wide variety of imaginative condoms and lubricants and providing education through its interactive search engines: "The Condom Wizard" and "Lucy Lube."
