ישראל • Condom Width • Girth • Fit
Use this Condom Size Chart Israel guide to understand how condoms are sized in the Israeli market. The most useful number to compare is רוחב נומינלי — nominal width — which describes the flat width of the condom in millimetres. Current Israeli retail listings include common widths such as 52 mm, 53 mm, 56 mm and 58 mm, while some current XL products reach 61 mm. This guide explains regular, snug, large and XL width comparisons, local Durex and GLYDE examples, erect-girth measurement, material differences and how to choose a secure fit.
Israeli product labels vary. Compare the exact nominal width rather than assuming every Regular, Large or XL condom uses the same measurement.
Condom size in Israel is best compared using nominal width, commonly described in Hebrew as רוחב נומינלי. This is the width of the condom when it is laid flat, normally measured in millimetres.
Current Israeli retail listings show that mainstream and specialist products overlap across several widths. Super-Pharm currently exposes 52 mm and 58 mm as size-filter values, while product pages also show 53 mm, 56 mm and 61 mm examples. That makes exact millimetres more useful than assuming one national “regular” size.
| Nominal Width | Approx. Inches | General Fit Comparison | Israeli Market Context |
|---|---|---|---|
| 47 mm | 1.85 in | Very snug | Specialist narrow-fit reference. |
| 49 mm | 1.93 in | Snug / close fit | Narrower than common mainstream Israeli options. |
| 52 mm | 2.05 in | Narrower standard / regular | Current Super-Pharm size filter includes 52 mm. |
| 53 mm | 2.09 in | Standard / regular | GLYDE Ultra is currently listed at 53 mm in Israel. |
| 54 mm | 2.13 in | Regular | Common global regular-size reference. |
| 56 mm | 2.20 in | Regular / wider regular | Durex Intense regular is currently 56 mm at Super-Pharm. |
| 58 mm | 2.28 in | Large / wide | Current Super-Pharm size filter includes 58 mm. |
| 60 mm | 2.36 in | Extra wide / XL | Useful larger-market comparison. |
| 61 mm | 2.40 in | XL / very wide | Durex Intense XL is currently listed at 61 mm in Israel. |
| 64 mm | 2.52 in | Super wide | Specialist extra-wide comparison. |
רוחב נומינלי means nominal width. It is the condom's flat product width, not the circumference of the penis. Israeli product pages may also describe the measurement simply as width in millimetres.
Penis girth — היקף — is measured all the way around the erect shaft. Because girth and nominal width are different measurements, a body circumference such as 110 or 120 mm should not be directly matched to a 52 or 56 mm condom width.
Use your body measurement with the sizing guidance from the manufacturer or seller, then confirm how the product actually feels and stays in place.
There is no single Israeli retail width that every manufacturer calls standard. Current local listings show mainstream products around 52, 53 and 56 mm.
For example, GLYDE Ultra is currently listed at 53 mm nominal width, while Durex Intense regular is 56 mm. This overlap is normal because brands use different materials, shapes and category names.
If you already know a width that fits well, keep that millimetre number as your personal reference when switching brands.
Durex is widely represented in the Israeli Super-Pharm condom category. Current listings include Thin Feel, Real Feel, Extra Safe, Invisible, XL Originals, XL Invisible and the newer Intense latex-free line.
The clearest current measured examples are Durex Intense regular at 56 mm nominal width and Durex Intense XL at 61 mm nominal width. Super-Pharm also describes XL Originals and XL Invisible as wider than their regular counterparts.
| Durex Israel Example | Published Width | Current Fit Note |
|---|---|---|
| Durex Intense Regular | 56 mm | Regular fit, straight shape, latex-free nitrile. |
| Durex Intense XL | 61 mm | XL width, latex-free nitrile. |
| Durex XL Originals | Wider than regular Originals | Exact surfaced page text does not publish a mm figure. |
| Durex XL Invisible | Wider than regular Invisible | Exact surfaced page text does not publish a mm figure. |
Super-Pharm currently lists GLYDE Ultra at 53 mm nominal width and 180 mm length. This gives a useful Israeli standard-width reference outside the Durex range.
A 53 mm condom is about 2.09 inches flat width. If a 53 mm product fits securely and comfortably, compare other brands around the same width before changing size dramatically.
Super-Pharm's current condom category includes several 52 mm size values in its product filters. This indicates that 52 mm is an actively represented width in the Israeli market.
52 mm equals 5.2 cm or about 2.05 inches flat width. It generally sits on the narrower side of mainstream regular sizing when compared with 53 or 56 mm products.
See our What Does 52mm Condom Mean? guide.
56 mm is a useful wider-regular reference in Israel. Durex Intense regular is currently listed at exactly 56 mm nominal width and described as Regular Fit.
This shows why 56 mm should not automatically be labelled “large”. Within one current Israeli Durex product family, 56 mm is the regular version and 61 mm is the XL version.
Super-Pharm currently exposes 58 mm as a condom-size filter. A 58 mm condom equals about 2.28 inches flat width and generally sits beyond many standard 52–56 mm products.
It can reasonably be considered a large or wide comparison point, but exact category wording depends on the product.
Durex Intense XL is one of the clearest current Israel-specific XL examples because Super-Pharm lists its nominal width as 61 mm. That is about 2.40 inches flat width.
The regular Intense version is 56 mm, so the XL product adds 5 mm of nominal width. This is a meaningful size change, not simply different branding.
Durex Intense XL is also latex-free and made from nitrile, so both width and material differ from many traditional latex condoms.
Measure erect girth — היקף — around the fullest part of the shaft. Use a soft tape measure and keep it snug against the skin without compressing tissue.
If you do not have a flexible tape, use non-stretch string, mark the overlap and measure the string with a ruler. Repeat the measurement to confirm consistency.
Then compare the result with the sizing guidance of the exact brand. Do not divide or convert body girth into a product width unless the manufacturer explicitly tells you to use that method.
Measure while fully erect.
Wrap around the fullest part of the shaft.
Repeat for consistency.
Read the exact width on the pack or product page.
Choose a condom that stays secure without painful pressure.
The figure below shows the Israeli sizing sequence: measure היקף, read רוחב נומינלי, then assess real התאמה.
Body circumference and flat condom width are related to fit but remain different measurements.
Measure full erect circumference around the fullest part of the shaft.
Read the flat width in millimetres from the product specification.
Use width as a starting point and confirm comfort, security, shape and material.
These three widths illustrate the regular-size overlap in the Israeli market. Super-Pharm actively lists 52 mm options, GLYDE Ultra is 53 mm, and Durex Intense regular is 56 mm.
The difference between 52 and 56 mm is 4 mm of flat nominal width, which can be noticeable. If one width is slightly uncomfortable, compare the next nearby size rather than jumping straight to XL.
The current Durex Intense family gives an unusually clear local comparison: regular is 56 mm nominal width and XL is 61 mm.
Both are latex-free nitrile products, so the width difference can be compared within a similar material family. A 5 mm increase in nominal width is substantial enough that the XL version should be chosen because measurements and fit suggest it is needed, not just because “XL” sounds more comfortable.
Israel's current retail market includes both latex and latex-free condoms. GLYDE Ultra is listed as natural latex, while Durex Intense is a latex-free nitrile product. Durex Real Feel is another widely sold non-latex-style option.
Material can change stretch, softness and sensation, which means two condoms with similar nominal widths may feel different. Use width as your starting point, then compare material and shape.
A condom should fit closely, but persistent painful pressure, strong constriction or repeated difficulty unrolling a correctly oriented condom can indicate that the width is too narrow.
Super-Pharm's current Durex Intense instructions explicitly tell users to stop and check if the condom feels as though it is slipping or pressing too tightly, because an unsuitable fit can contribute to failure.
Repeated slipping, bunching or excessive movement can suggest that the condom is wider or longer than needed. If a narrower width remains comfortable and more secure, that may be the better fit.
Erection changes and incomplete unrolling can also affect stability, so review technique before changing size.
Width and length are separate condom measurements. GLYDE Ultra, for example, is currently listed in Israel at 53 mm nominal width and 180 mm length.
A condom can be the right width but too short or too long. If the shaft fit is comfortable but coverage is inadequate, compare length without automatically changing width.
Condoms are widely available through Israeli pharmacies, drugstore chains and online retailers. Super-Pharm's current condom category includes Durex, GLYDE, R3, Life, Safe Touch and other brands.
For unusual widths, check the product filters and exact specifications rather than assuming the physical shelf will carry every size.
Israel's Ministry of Health identifies condoms as a non-hormonal barrier contraceptive and also promotes condom use as an important measure for reducing HIV transmission risk.
Current Durex Intense instructions sold in Israel advise checking the expiry date and wrapper, opening carefully, placing the condom on the erect penis with the rolled side out, squeezing the tip, rolling to the base and holding the condom at the base during withdrawal.
Size and correct use work together. A well-sized condom can still fail if damaged or applied incorrectly, while a correctly applied condom may still be uncomfortable if the width is unsuitable.
Israel's current condom market shows several useful nominal-width reference points: 52 mm appears in Super-Pharm size filters, GLYDE Ultra is 53 mm, Durex Intense regular is 56 mm, 58 mm is available as a wider filter option, and Durex Intense XL is 61 mm.
Focus on רוחב נומינלי, measure erect היקף, and confirm actual התאמה. The right condom should stay secure without painful pressure, regardless of the marketing label on the package.
