Try the standard Durex condoms, if you find there extremely tight as in cutting off your circulation then get the wider ones.

The diff btw'n condoms is: Lubed or unlubed, receptacle or plain end. It's really a matter of preference, the best way to find out which one you prefer is to get both and 'experiment' when you are alone. This will also familiarize you with how they work, and give you the opportunity to practice putting them on and taking them off. Also, don't forget to read the instructions.

All the major brands are really the same, you just to need to make sure they're 'latex', do NOT get the animal skinned ones as they do not protect from STI's, stay away from the gimmicky 'ribbed' or 'ultra' ones, and forget about the 'larger' sized, as that refers more to someone's ego rather than actual penis size.

The terms girth for your penis' Circumference.
And you've got an average sized penis so normal sized condoms would do fine, and i don't think the brand has any major effect if it's one of the common ones

Honestly, regular size will work fine. Condoms are specifically made out of tight constricting material for a reason. And no, it should not be loose at all. Really, would you want a condom falling off inside your lover? No.

My friend did a demonstration with one once and put it on his hand, then pulled it down to his elbow. A regular size condom. Over a man's forearm.

The condom will be tight, but the only reason you really need to upgrade in size if it is physically PAINFUL. It won't be "comfortable", but it shouldn't hurt. Also, don't be foolish and upgrade to something like X-X-Large Magnums just to say you wear them. It defeats the function.

I agree with the others that you should just go with standard sized condoms as you don't need anything else. The condoms that have the special features such as studs, ribs, etc. really don't do much most of the time, and the standard lubricated condom will do the job. Just make sure you get lubricated condoms as the non-lubricated ones don't feel good at all. If you or your partner do have a latex allergy, then only buy polyurethane condoms as those will not cause a reaction for either of you.

As for brands of condoms, the reality is that all the major national brands will do the job such as Trojan, Durex, Lifestyles, etc. Trojans are really good, but the other brand are fine, too.

Okay, so I don't make a new thread exactly the same as this one, if I'm about 7 inches long and 5.5 inches circumference, would I just need to buy the regular size?

The same advice goes for you, refer to my post, like... a few up. We usually frown upon people hijacking threads and posting thier own questions. You could've answered your own question without posting.

As long as you aren't in pain and oyu aren't easily tearing it, it fits.
