I'm around 4.5 inches hard erect. Flaccid i'm very small basically a bit more than 2 inches flaccid. I bought some small size condoms called caution wear iron grip because its a small size condom.


Its 6.7 inches long and 1.92mm width. My penis when erect is below average and width wise, it isn't that narrow though. However, when i put on the condom with my erect penis, it was really hard. However i read its b/c of the snug size fit of the condom. However after i put it on, it felt really tight.


My question is does anyone have experience with Lifestyles snugger fit condom?


This is the chart i used when i bought the caution wear condom.



Condom size chart



From looking at it, is basically lifestyles snugger fit condom the same as the caution wear only difference is the lifestyles is a bit longer at 7 inches compared to 6.7? My penis erect size is around 4.5' roughly though could be a bit more or bit less than most times a bit less.


The thing is are all snugger fit condoms hard to put on? Feels very tight and tough to put on. However theres no point of me trying on a regular size condom right since it will definitely be too big for me and loose? The caution wear iron grip would have a very tough time falling off as its very tight. So now i want to know is it worth it to buy the lifestyle snugger condom? Specs seem very similar to iron grip except its 7 inches long. But if width is same thing, then theres really no point?

The two most important things for you is the nominal width/diameter of the condom, and the shape. Some are uniform, some flair bigger at the head, and none seem to flair larger at the base. Length doesn't really matter if you are shorter than the condom, except that if you are too much shorter there will be more left rolled up, which can also make it a bit tighter (due to more material).

This might help when trying to find one of the right width:

What is your penis erect size party? I never mentioned girth... only length when erect. Also don't you find iron grip very tight? It was very hard to put it on when my penis was erect and very tough to put it over my full penis.


Phoenix... both condoms i mentioned seem to have same width right at 1.92? Thus basically these 2 condoms are pretty much the same except lifestyle snugger fit is 7' and the iron grip is 6.69'? The thing is if someone is 4.5', doesn't 7' and 6.69' the length of it not going to matter at all?

just reread my post, not correct. I am 4.5 EG but before PE I was 5.5 BPEL now about 6.25. Lenght doesn't matter condom wise , only girth to keep from slipping.

Where do you roll the iron grip to on your penis then? Halfway from the tip of the penis to the middle or much further?

I assume you are meaning ,"how much of it do I use?" I'm 53, I didn't use it for the reasons you do, to prevent an unwanted pregnancy. My wife has gone thru menopause and can't have any more kids. I use it to help keep the roll down penis extender secure and clean each time. And even with the 3 inch extention I don't use it all.

the length matters a lot if your uncut


imo condoms are way too short and don't account if the person is not cut because of the roll over ... condoms are designed for circumcised men. they would have to be about 10inches long to account for not being circumcised.

All condoms/any condom is designed to be rolled down to the base. Not sure what you are asking here.

Hmm never really thought of it that way, as I've been cut my whole adult life. I've always wondered why condom companies seem to select 7" as the average condom length. I thought it might just be a safety buffer (and likely is) for those who are longer, but I guess the extra length could come into play for those who are uncut as well.

I would think 4.5 should be a standard size.

Condoms are a personal preference thing. You need to try several brands. I had some Trojans that flared at the end. Looked like a balloon. Those sucked.

A few years ago I bought Lifestyles. They fit ok. Then I started PE and don't need them anymore. Tug, clamp, jelq, pump, hang and one day you could be buying magnums :)

Putting on a Condom Question

Putting on a Condom Question

I bought iron grip condoms because my penis is small. It around 4.5 inches erect at the very most so thats why i bought it. I have a very tough time putting it on and i do those these condoms are very tight. First off, how do i know which way to put it in? I'm not sure if i'm putting it upside down or not. So if one way doesn't work or is way too hard, then it must be the other way around?


I did read many reviews that say putting this condom is very hard because its very tight. However i did read this condom is good in that it won't fall off etc.


Another question I have is I know many of you try on many different condoms to see which one fits you right... then you would only buy that condom from now on etc. My question is when i put on a condom brand like iron grip, if i see its too tight, then i would use another brand etc. However, if you try on many different condoms, say 2-3 other brands... does that mean you have to dispose of these condoms and can't use it for future use? Example say you use lifestyles and another brand and find these 2 condoms to be good fitting. Does that mean you cannot use these condoms that you tried on for later use? Thus basically once you try on any condom, you have to throw it away?

A condom my friend is like going to be fitted for a rented tux. You don't get to wear it home. Once you've tried it on, it ain't no more use downtown.

Are you talking 4.5 length or girth, length doesn't matter much as far as condoms go, depending on your girth, you may need a different size. As far as putting them on, you have to look at the way they're rolled up, if it won't roll down the shaft, it's backwards, and like Party said, once they're out of the package, use it or throw it away, although I would love to see someone bring an open one into a store to exchange sizes, lol.

I'm at most 4.5' length when erection. I never measured my girth. When flaccid, my penis is around 2' to 2.25' at the very most. First off is that grower or not? Because well my penis is just about 2 inches bigger when erect. I consider myself grower because my penis when flaccid is very small. However i think that term is more towards people who have say 2 to 2.5 inch flaccid penis but their erect is say 6 inches etc?


Okay when i take condom out of package, it looks like a baby pacifier. So put my penis into the pacifier or its the other way around?


Well i mean assuming you try on a few condoms. Say you bought 5 different types. Then once you try them all on to see which is best fit you then have to throw each one out no matter what?

A 4.5" erect girth is close to the median point and well within normal range ,I am surprised you guys feel the need of a small fit.
