Default Re: Sizes compared
While we're on about condom sizes, does anyone else have their condoms rapidly shrink after clipping the ends shut?
I can blow them to a nice size for amusement but end up popping them in some way immediately because they seem to be half their size after half an hour.

Never use clips with inflated condoms, because they are fragile and can be easily punctured by the sharp edges of the clips. The puncture may be too small to notice it, but enough for slow air leak. I always use a rubber bands to tie the condom balloons.

OK Thanks Glove i'll try bands next time.

Update: Works better than the clips, it seems. I have two test dingers tied off with bands, a skyn regular and some random latex one and they haven't really shrunk that much over a few hours.

I'm glad it worked for you. When I didn't have a rubber band, I used the edge cut out of popped condom. It is easier to tie with a rubber band cut in half, you can wrap tighter.

Yeah I actually used cut off balloon lips to secure them. My skyn has since popped on its own, the second one today. Must not be a very good day for it...

The clearest markings have MY.SIZE condoms, where the size is simply the circumference in mm. TheyFit use a coded combination of a letter and 2 digits, it is easy to get confused.
