Comparing TheyFit Condoms to Others
Hello,
It's nice to get the info on the customized condom line - what a hugely (heh, heh) creative idea.
Currently I use your Lifestyles slimmer-fitting condoms, mainly because I've always liked a snug fit. However, I've noticed that the current version (I think called "Snugger-Fit") in the blue package has gotten a litle too tight, compared with the older green-wrapper "Lifestyles" version.
Anyway, what I'm getting at is this - I measured myself using your kit at around M88. Do you happen to know how that compares to the current Lifestyles slim
fit condom? I have a good quantity of those on hand; I would be interested in trying a looser fitting custom condom, but I'd really like to compare it to a
"known" size. Does that make sense? So I'd like to know if the Lifestyles condom is an 88, 77, 66, etc., based on your measurement scale.
Thanks and let me know if you have any info....

Size Guy,
Unfortunately we really can't give you direct comparisons between previously available condoms and the TheyFit condoms. The two condoms you mention don't actually have a corollary to one of the TheyFit condoms. I can tell you that 95% of the condoms previously made by major international manufacturers do not fall into the 55 sizes in the TheyFit line. One major component of this situation is that most condoms have been made, up until now, rather longish in compared to the average guy. The idea behind this is rather simple. If a condom is a bit too long then it's not too big of a deal because the unrolled part at the base of the penis usually doesn't get in anyone's way.
Obviously you can get one of the M88 condoms and get out a ruler and then measure the LifeStyles condom of your choice and make a direct comparison but I'm afraid you'll find they do not match up in any meaningful way. Our position is that you will definitely get a better experience by simply using the Fit Kit and using the correct size TheyFit condom.
