Condoms revolutionized the modern world in 1855 when the first mass-produced rubber hit shelves using the same technology that Charles Goodyear had patented to produce his famous tires. With sudden access to safe sex, coitus culture would change virtually overnight. While male contraception may date all the way back to ancient Egypt (with a whole lot of interesting iterations since), there’s no doubt that today we have the most technologically advanced longsword sheaths man (and woman) has ever seen. Using arduous testing methods, we were able to rank the top condoms on the market today. So next time you and your partner are looking to wrap it up, slip on one of these top-shelf prophylactics and let the satisfaction begin.
