THE CLAIM/INTRO:

"Designed with deep ribs to help stimulate both partners in their most sensitive areas."

The Trojan Twisted Condom used to be a disaster. This new design is a complete revamp winner. The specially designed ribbed head has swirled spiral ribs for added stimulation. It also has extra room for adding sensitivity for the wearer. A spacial larger reservoir tip is added for safety and the condom is lubricated for comfort and sensitivity. It has a slightly larger size which can cater to the larger than average male.

Compared to average condoms:

Today's average condom has a thickness of 0.0027". The Stimulations Twisted isn't special in its thickness. It makes up for sensation in other areas. This condom will feel like a run of the mill condom in terms of thickness.

The average condom is 7.5" long. This condom has about the same dimensions and specs as the Ecstacy line also by Trojan. This condom is a roomier 7.87" long. This is a nice length for larger than average guys, but might not be enough for the guys who require Magnum XL condoms. Another nice feature of this condom is the larger reservoir tip. This adds to the safety and comfort of the condom by not increasing its tightness once semen is released. I recommend these condoms for members no longer than about 7.25". They are also probably best for guys longer than 6.25" although they will work, just not as well.

Average condom head width is 2.125". Since this condom is shaped and sized like the Ecstacy condoms, it also has a nice and larger sized head of 2.44". This part of the design is catered to the male's pleasure.
By making the head of the condom wider it allows for less restriction and more needed friction. This friction helps to keep the nerve packed head stimulated. It also helps the receiver by allowing them to feel their partner's naturally engorged head when it is aroused.

Average shaft and base width is 2" the Trojan Twisted is slightly larger at 2.05". This probably won't be noticeable to many guys, but the contoured shape in comparison to the head also helps arousal for the male. For larger guys, a smaller base width means that the condom is less likely to slip off. For average girth guys, you may need to hold onto the end of the condom when pulling out or changing positions. It could slip off.

This condom has some seriously unique ribbing. Over 1/3 of the top part of the condom has a spiral type of ribbing pattern. In close double lines the rows of ribs swirl down the head of the condom. These deep ribs are designed to stimulate the receiver. The ribs are deeper than those featured on average ribbed condoms and might be felt by those who normally cannot feel textured condoms. Some women are most sensitive for the first inch or two of their vaginal opening and may not feel this texture as much as condom who have the texture at the base.

This condom has a slick water based lubricant. It is moderate in quantity so more may be needed for longer sexual sessions. A major plus of this condom is that it has a low latex smell. They also come in a fun lime green wrapper that is easy open. The wrappers are foil with paper coverings. They come in the newly designed condom packages. Want a twist on the old condom? Try the Trojan Twisted next time!

So how did it subjectively work for us?

I was really surprised that the ribbing could be felt as much as it was. I really felt it deep inside, and it gave a lot of pleasure throughout. I found the lubricant to be lacking and added more before we even started. I could just tell that it wasn't going to be enough for a long session like we wanted. My partner was able to finish in this condom but didn't have anything positive to say about it or negative for that matter. "It's a condom". It fit him with little restriction, much less than most condoms. So, for me, it was better than most condoms because it added something for me, but I'd rather the experience be a mutual positive. For this, I give this condom 4 stars.

After finding my favorite condom, I rarely buy a new condom type twice. This condom is an exception. We really liked it and, even though it is short on lubricant sometimes, that's an easy to fix.
