In leu of Avanti going latex, and my latex sensitivity, I cautiously swapped to the skyn original, then these. I was skeptical about trusting Lifestyles after years with Durex, and a bounty of jokes about Lifestyle mishaps. These are NOT the standard, department of health, condoms they handed out in high school. I love them! These were my boyfriend's first use of non latex condoms. He's adamant about never switching back. Where he's a newb, I've run, the very limited, gambit of the latex adversary. With the exception of the fc2s I've tried all of them. Skyn's feel way better than Trojan's polyurethane condoms, and come with better protection statistics than the natural/lamb condoms. With the extra lube, these are my new favorite. Forget you durex!
