Compare Durex • Trojan • SKYN • MyONE
Compare condom fit by brand using published product dimensions rather than assuming that “small”, “regular”, “large” or “XL” mean the same thing everywhere. This guide compares current official size information from Durex, Trojan, SKYN and MyONE, shows how nominal-width systems differ, and helps you relate brand labels to measurable width.
Choose verified brand examples, compare published widths, translate your current product to a nearby width in another brand, or keep girth and brand width in context.
Compare selected official width examples. For shaped Trojan models, the option label identifies whether the number is a base or other published width.
Enter the nominal width that currently fits you. The tool finds verified examples on this page within a selected millimetre distance.
See how each brand currently presents fit information and what to watch for when comparing it with another system.
Record erect body girth beside a selected brand width example. This does not turn brand width into a universal girth prescription.
Cross-brand condom comparison works best when the actual dimensions are placed side by side. A marketing word such as “regular” does not have one universal millimetre definition. The table below uses current official manufacturer information available in August 2026 and is intended as a technical comparison snapshot. Product ranges can change, so check the package and manufacturer before purchase.
| Brand / Product Family | Published Width | Brand Fit Label | Material / Shape Context | Comparison Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Durex UK Close Fit | 52.5 mm nominal width | Close Fit | Product-specific latex/non-latex variants exist | Narrower than Durex UK Regular. |
| Durex UK Regular Fit | 56 mm nominal width | Regular Fit | Easy-On family; product materials vary | Durex's current regular width. |
| Durex UK Wide Fit | 57 mm nominal width | Wide Fit | Easy-On; check individual product specs | Only 1 mm wider than its Regular width. |
| SKYN Original / Elite | 53 mm nominal width | Standard sizing | Polyisoprene / SKYNFEEL | Non-latex product family. |
| SKYN Large | 56 mm nominal width | Large | Polyisoprene / SKYNFEEL | Same nominal width number as Durex UK Regular, but material/shape differ. |
| Trojan BareSkin / several standard models | 53 mm base width | Model-specific | Trojan chart also lists length and, for some shapes, head width | Do not reduce shaped Trojan products to one label. |
| Trojan Ultra Fit Comfort Feel | 55 mm base / 62 mm head | Comfort Feel | Shaped profile | Example of why base and head dimensions matter. |
| MyONE Custom Fit | Width families visible from 45 to 64 mm on current US range; regional ranges can differ | FitCode / custom-fit | Multiple widths combined with multiple lengths | Much more granular than small/regular/large systems. |
Durex UK currently organises much of its range with a straightforward three-part width language: Close Fit, Regular Fit and Wide Fit. Its current buying guide states 52.5 mm nominal width for Close Fit, 56 mm for Regular Fit and 57 mm for Wide Fit. This makes Durex relatively easy to compare internally because the fit names are explicitly tied to nominal-width values.
The important cross-brand lesson is that Durex's “Regular” is not a universal regular size. At 56 mm, Durex UK Regular is numerically wider than SKYN's 53 mm standard Original/Elite products and wider than many Trojan models that list a 53 mm base width. Meanwhile, Durex Wide at 57 mm is only 1 mm wider than Durex Regular, so the label change sounds larger than the flat-width difference alone.
Individual Durex products can also differ in thickness, material, lubrication and shape. Durex Real Feel, for example, is a non-latex product in a regular 56 mm fit on the current UK site, while other regular-fit products may use natural-rubber latex. Always compare the specific product page, not just the brand-level family.

SKYN's current international product pages identify 53 mm nominal width for SKYN Original and SKYN Elite, while SKYN Large is 56 mm. SKYN products use a synthetic polyisoprene material marketed as SKYNFEEL rather than natural-rubber latex. Material is therefore a major part of a cross-brand comparison, not just the millimetre number.
SKYN's 56 mm Large and Durex UK's 56 mm Regular illustrate why marketing labels cannot be directly translated. The exact same nominal-width number can be called “Large” by one brand and “Regular” by another. This is not a contradiction; each company defines its own product range and naming structure.
If you switch from a 53 mm SKYN Original to a 56 mm Durex UK Regular, you are moving 3 mm wider in flat nominal width and changing material system. If you switch from SKYN Large 56 mm to Durex UK Regular 56 mm, the nominal width stays the same while other properties change.

Trojan's official size chart is especially useful because it shows why a single “nominal width” number does not always capture product shape. Several Trojan products list a 53 mm base width, but some models also list a different width elsewhere on the condom. For example, the current chart lists Trojan Ultra Fit Comfort Feel at 55 mm base width and 62 mm head width.
Other models on the official Trojan chart can have a 53 mm base with wider head dimensions, including 63 mm or 73 mm depending on the design. That means a shopper comparing “53 mm Trojan” with a straight 53 mm product from another brand should check whether 53 mm describes only the base. The wider head profile can change how the condom feels even when the base width matches another product.
Trojan therefore demonstrates a key principle for brand fit comparison: shape data matters. If a brand supplies base and head widths, preserve both dimensions in your notes rather than flattening the product into one generic size.

MyONE uses a much more granular approach than a simple small/regular/large ladder. Current MyONE product pages describe a custom-fit system with multiple width and length combinations. The current US collection visibly includes width families such as 45, 47, 49, 51, 53, 55, 57, 60 and 64 mm, paired with different length codes. Regional availability and regulatory ranges can differ.
This system is useful for people who find that mainstream width/length combinations do not match their body well. MyONE also instructs users to measure erect length and wrap a tape gently around the thickest part to measure girth before using its fit system.
Cross-brand comparison with MyONE should be done carefully because a MyONE code contains more than width. If you know only that your MyONE product is 53 mm wide, you still need to preserve its length code when looking for an equivalent. A 53 mm MyONE product and a 53 mm SKYN product share a width number, but they are not automatically equivalent in length, material or shape.

“Regular” is a merchandising label, not a single international width. Durex UK currently assigns 56 mm to Regular Fit, while SKYN describes 53 mm as its standard sizing for Original and Elite. Trojan uses model-specific dimensions rather than one simple universal “regular width” across the whole range.
This is why switching brands by matching words alone can create a fit change you did not expect. If your current condom says regular, look up its actual nominal width before choosing “regular” in another brand. The new product may be narrower, wider, or shaped differently.
The best cross-brand record is numerical: brand + model + nominal/base width + head width if supplied + length + material. A note such as “SKYN Original, 53 mm, polyisoprene” is far more useful than “regular condom”.
Not necessarily. A 56 mm Durex product and a 56 mm SKYN product share the same nominal-width number, but they can use different materials, contours, wall constructions, lubrication and lengths. Nominal width is an excellent baseline dimension, not a complete prediction of sensation.
Shape is especially important when the manufacturer provides multiple widths. A Trojan condom with a 53 mm base and much wider head is not directly equivalent to a straight-walled 53 mm condom. Likewise, custom-fit brands may combine the same width with several product lengths.
When two products share a width, treat them as same-width candidates, not identical products. Verify the rest of the specification and assess whether the condom stays secure without painful constriction.
Translate brand labels into measurable dimensions before deciding whether two products are actually close substitutes.
Start with the product name: Close, Regular, Large, Wide, Comfort, FitCode or another brand-specific term.
Translate the label into nominal/base width in mm, plus head width where the brand supplies it.
Then compare material, contour, length and real fit instead of assuming equal labels mean equal products.
Durex UK and SKYN provide a useful example of why brand labels should be translated into millimetres. SKYN Original and Elite are currently 53 mm, while Durex Close Fit is 52.5 mm. Numerically those are very close. A shopper moving between them is changing flat width by only 0.5 mm, but also changing material if the Durex product is latex while the SKYN product is polyisoprene.
At the wider end, SKYN Large is 56 mm and Durex Regular is also 56 mm. Again, the width number matches while the brand label does not. This is a strong reason to build your fit history around product dimensions instead of marketing words.
Durex UK publishes simple nominal-width fit families, while Trojan's official chart can give a base width and a wider head dimension for shaped products. A Durex 56 mm regular product therefore cannot be compared only with a Trojan model's largest width number. Check whether the Trojan value belongs to the base, head or another part of the condom.
For example, Trojan BareSkin is listed with 53 mm widths in the current chart, while Ultra Fit Comfort Feel is 55 mm at the base and 62 mm at the head. The Comfort Feel model is therefore shaped in a way that a single 55 mm label would not fully describe.
SKYN Original and Elite publish 53 mm nominal width, while Trojan's current chart shows a 53 mm base width for multiple models. That makes 53 mm a useful cross-brand starting comparison, but not proof that the products will fit identically.
SKYN uses polyisoprene and many Trojan products use latex. Trojan also offers shaped models with wider head dimensions. If the goal is to preserve a familiar fit while switching material, keep the width close but expect the sensation and stretch behaviour to differ.
MyONE differs from Durex, SKYN and many Trojan models because its system combines multiple widths with multiple lengths. That can help when a single mainstream width feels reasonable around the shaft but the product length is consistently excessive or insufficient.
A width such as 53 mm appears in both MyONE and SKYN, but MyONE may pair that width with several length codes. A fair comparison therefore needs both width and length. The same principle applies if you use a MyONE 60 mm or 64 mm product and want to compare it with a wider mainstream option.
Before switching, write down the exact product you currently use and its published dimensions. Record nominal/base width, head width if available, product length, material and whether the condom is straight or shaped. Then search the new brand for the closest technical profile.
Save brand, model and exact published width.
Note straight, contoured, flared or base/head dimensions.
Search the new brand for a close technical width.
Latex and non-latex products can feel different.
Confirm secure, comfortable use and correct application.
Erect girth gives you a body measurement that remains the same when brand labels change. Measure around the fullest part of the erect shaft with a soft tape, keep the tape snug without compressing, and record the circumference. Use that measurement with manufacturer fit tools or a carefully explained girth-to-width guide.
Do not enter your girth directly as nominal width. A 115 mm girth is body circumference; a 53 mm condom is flat product width. If you need a broad starting comparison, use the Girth to Condom Width guide. For measurement technique, see the Condom Girth Guide.
Material can be a decisive difference even when width is identical. SKYN Original, Elite and Large use polyisoprene and are marketed as non-latex. Durex UK sells both natural-rubber latex products and non-latex options such as Real Feel, while Trojan and MyONE product materials vary by specific range.
If you have a known or suspected latex allergy, follow the product's material information and health-professional advice rather than choosing solely by width. A same-width switch from latex to polyisoprene may feel different even if the nominal-width number stays unchanged.
Shape can be as important as width when a product is contoured. A straight-walled condom gives a relatively consistent cross-section, while a flared or anatomical model may be narrower at the base and wider near the head.
Trojan's official chart makes this especially visible by publishing different base and head widths for some models. If another brand publishes only one nominal width, do not assume the two products have the same contour just because one number matches.
The How to Measure Nominal Width page explains why one household measurement may not capture a contoured product.
Fit problems can also be caused by application technique, orientation, storage, expiry, lubrication or product damage. Do not assume every problem is a width problem until correct-use factors have been checked.
Condom ranges are commercial product lines. Models can be renamed, reformulated, discontinued or sold in different dimensions in different regions. A Durex product in the UK may not have the same naming or availability as a similarly named product elsewhere, and MyONE's available width range can differ by country because of regulatory and distribution differences.
Treat this page as an August 2026 comparison snapshot. Before buying, verify the product package and current manufacturer page. If the manufacturer page conflicts with a retailer listing, prefer the current manufacturer specification.
Among the four brands compared here, MyONE currently uses the most granular width-and-length system. Instead of placing most users into only a few size names, it combines several nominal-width families with several lengths. That does not automatically make it the “best” brand for every person; it simply gives more dimensional combinations when standard width/length pairings do not work well.
Durex UK takes a simpler fit-navigation approach with Close, Regular and Wide widths. SKYN has a compact standard-versus-large structure on the products reviewed here. Trojan sits somewhere different again because its official chart provides model-by-model geometry, including base and mid-body widths for shaped products. The systems are solving the same problem—fit—but they describe it in different ways.
Choose the system that gives you the information you need. If you already know one mainstream width fits well, a simple brand range may be enough. If you repeatedly have excess length, inadequate length or unusual width needs, a multi-dimensional custom-fit system may give you more useful options.
For a narrower cross-brand comparison, the closest verified examples on this page are Durex UK Close Fit at 52.5 mm, SKYN Original/Elite at 53 mm, several Trojan standard models at a 53 mm base width, and MyONE width families below and around that area such as 49, 51 and 53 mm.
Notice how the words differ. Durex calls 52.5 mm “Close Fit”, SKYN calls 53 mm standard, Trojan uses model names rather than one close-fit label, and MyONE builds the width into a custom-fit code. Someone who blindly searches for “small” across all four brands could miss technically close products simply because the marketing language is different.
If your current product is around 52–53 mm and fits well, use that number as your anchor. Compare products within roughly one or two millimetres first, then evaluate material and contour. A large jump to 45 or 60 mm would change the technical width much more than a label-based comparison might suggest.
Wider options also illustrate the limits of labels. Durex UK currently calls 57 mm Wide Fit, while SKYN calls 56 mm Large. MyONE has width families at 57, 60 and 64 mm in its current collection, giving several larger technical steps. Trojan's wider and Magnum models use product-specific dimensions, and some shapes become substantially wider through the mid-body or head than at the base.
If a 56 mm product is nearly right but still tight, comparing 57 mm is a much smaller technical move than jumping to a 64 mm product. Conversely, if a 57 mm product repeatedly slips, moving to a 55 or 56 mm option gives a more controlled test than dropping immediately to a very narrow width.
Always check which dimension the brand is publishing. A 57 mm nominal width on a straight product and a 57 mm maximum width on a contoured product are not necessarily equivalent. Base, shaft and head geometry can matter.
Use this checklist whenever you switch from one brand to another. It reduces the chance of choosing a noticeably different fit simply because the box uses the same marketing word.
A simple note such as “Current: 53 mm straight polyisoprene, secure fit; New candidate: 52.5 mm latex Close Fit” tells you exactly what is changing. The width changes by only 0.5 mm, but material also changes. That is much more informative than writing “regular to close fit”.
These four numbers form a useful cross-brand cluster. Around 52–53 mm, Durex Close, SKYN Original/Elite and many Trojan standard-base dimensions sit close together numerically. Around 56–57 mm, Durex Regular/Wide and SKYN Large sit close together, while MyONE offers nearby 55 and 57 mm width families.
| Width Area | Verified Brand Examples | What Changes Besides Width? |
|---|---|---|
| 52–53 mm | Durex Close 52.5; SKYN Original/Elite 53; Trojan several 53 mm base models; MyONE 53 family | Material, shape, length, thickness, lubrication. |
| 55–57 mm | MyONE 55/57; Durex Regular 56; Durex Wide 57; SKYN Large 56; Trojan Comfort Feel 55 mm base | Trojan may widen at head; SKYN material differs; Durex fit labels differ. |
| 60–64 mm | MyONE 60 and 64 families; wider Trojan/Magnum models require model-specific chart review | Length and contour become especially important. |
This table is not a recommendation ranking. It is a dimension map. If you know your current successful width, use the nearest rows to create a shortlist, then check the specific product and manufacturer guidance.
Retailers sometimes simplify product data, reuse old descriptions or convert millimetres into rounded inch values. Regional products can also share similar names while using different packaging or specifications. That can create apparent conflicts between a retailer listing and the current brand page.
For this page, manufacturer sources are treated as the primary reference. If you see a retailer claim that conflicts with the current official product page, check the physical package and manufacturer information before relying on the retailer. This is especially important for a cross-brand comparison where a difference of only one or two millimetres may be relevant.
Keep a screenshot or written note of the current specification if you are comparing products over time. Product lines can change, and an old review may describe a version that is no longer identical to the one currently sold.
A well-matched brand still needs correct use. Current NHS guidance advises using a new condom every time, checking the use-by date and package, following packet instructions, and avoiding oil-based lubricant with latex condoms. CDC external-condom guidance also covers correct application, removal and storage.
If a condom comes off or splits, follow current health-service guidance promptly because emergency contraception or STI assessment may be relevant depending on the situation.
