European Condom Size

Is it just me, or are EU condoms smaller than regular US condoms? I have no "large" options here- and the larger of the euro condoms are still painfully small and do not completely cover my cock. The larger RFSU condoms are maybe 185 X 52 mm. Standard EU condoms are only 170 X 56mm. Anyone have similar experiences abroad? Solutions?

Girth of European condoms has been a real headache for me.

I am 6.5 in girth and i insisted a lot in trying to use regular condoms, with the same result each time: i lost the erection.

Then I moved to big european condoms, and the result was the same because usually they are longer and wider only at the head, while at the base they are like the regular ones.

Now I use Magnum XL and they fit perfectly.

By the way I think there is an European Commission decision that requires the size of condoms to be standardized in all the E.U.

Depends where in the EU you are?

In Germany, the biggest standard off-the-shelf condoms at neighborhood pharmacies are "Durex King Size", which are 215mm x 64mm --- however, the 'ring' at the base is just 57mm, with the lower part of the shaft area narrower still, at 54mm!

This is still an improvement over 'standard condoms' in terms of length, but not really in terms of girth.

However... there are lots of other options online... but it would be useful to know which nation you are in to respond to this more fully.

Also be aware that Trojan Magnum condoms can no longer be sold (legally) in the EU, as they are 'not recognized as a condom' under EU guidelines. So unless this situation is rectified, once currently available stocks are gone, that'll be it.. unless you import your own from the US. [source; German language only]

WTF? Not a condom?

And Condomi XXL in Germany aren't much bigger than regular. It seems a lot of the Large, XL etc are just that big in name only and only for effect.

Magnum XL are brilliant though shame they're so expensive.

Buy them off the internet. I used some EU (esensuel) condoms one time and they would hardly go over my finger never mind anything bigger.

It depends on the country... It is a bit of a problem girth-wise sometimes, but length-wise they're just fine (at least for me at ca. 18cm)... in Croatia and Bosnia (where I live) these are the standard sizes...

So true....

Damn the Condomi XXL: where on earth are they bigger? I almost squeezed my penis while triying to pack it in one of them.... :-(

Condomi has essentially stated in the past that it's just a "brand name with market appeal", rather than actually being a larger condom.
