<p>Guys often complain that condoms don't let them feel anything during sex. But if you're convinced that wearing a condom sucks, it may be time to invest in a different type of condom, says sex therapist Ian Kerner, PhD, author of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/She-Comes-First-Thinking-Pleasuring/dp/0060538260" id="86a9cbc0-086e-3c47-ae2b-88cea9a9a5b7">  She Comes First: The Thinking Man's Guide to Pleasuring a Woman </a> .</p>

<p>According to Kerner, there are three factors every guy should consider when buying condoms: finding a rubber that fits well, thickness, and texture. </p>

<p>A snug condom is as important in maximizing pleasure as it is in protecting against sexually transmitted infections and pregnancy. Too-tight or loose condoms can tear, slide off, or cause guys to lose their erections, according to a 2015 study published in the journal <a href="http://sti.bmj.com/content/86/1/36" id="677d9d21-4e34-3e66-a587-7ba699e2c2ab">  Sexually Transmitted Infections </a> .</p>

<p>Kerner advises guys to experiment by trying on different condom sizes. For a precise fit, measure the thickest part of your penis when erect. The most important measurement is <a href="https://www.esquire.com/lifestyle/sex/a46620/condom-sizes/" id="853c068b-59db-38ae-ad6c-85482ee490a7">  girth, not length </a> .</p>

<p>And choosing ultra-thin or ribbed condoms not only protect against STIs and unwanted pregnancy, but they'll increase stimulation and make you feel like <a href="https://greatist.com/play/how-pick-best-condom" id="dd21e78f-caf3-382d-a2e7-19f94fa5fcd8">  theres less </a> material separating you from your partner.</p>

<p>Skip the guesswork out of buying the perfect condom by browsing these top 10 picks:</p>

<p>Looking for a condom that doesn't taste downright gross? SKYN doesn't contain <a href="https://shcs.ucdavis.edu/topics/spermicides" id="c03202c4-7ea5-38e5-a37d-619c079e768b">  Nonoxynol-9 </a> , a spermicide that tastes pretty unpleasant. Inspired by fruity cocktails, this pack includes Pina Colada and Daiquiri flavored rubbers.</p>

<p>Trojan's Ultra Thin condom is listed as Amazon's number one selling rubber. One reviwer describes them as, " <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1RGAMLHRD2N0D/ref=cm_cr_getr_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B0073RBUZ2" id="2c5bf48b-3cef-30b3-a76e-391af828a0b7">  Snug, very thin, didnt break, great value! </a> "</p>
