This stuff is so powerful it can catch a fat man dropping at 100MPH and still be in one piece. If everybody made safety nets out of this stuff for high places this world would be a safer place. But no, this stuff is reserved only to be used for our own personal pleasure. Well I'm not complaining!
I remember my first time popping to the chemist to buy a box of these squirt suckers. I was too embarrassed to walk up to the box of condoms to pick one up and pay for it. When I plucked up the courage to do it, as I walked over to the counter I felt dizzy and all the blood rushed to my nuts. Don't ask me why it happened because I have no idea! Now though I can skip merrily in there pick it up, pay and leave, no problems. How do you ask? That's because now me is a sex crazy beast monster and nothing going to stop me humping when I feel horny! (except when the missus tells me to bugger off then fair enough then... sulk in the corner...) These rocket blockers cost £7.95 for a box of 18 at Superdrug (special offer) and are great value for money seeing as the ordinary ones cost more. Prices will differ from place to place, but if you find it cheaper elsewhere then you will have no excuse in not bagging yourself a box! (unless you're single and have no luck with the ladies... poor sod)
It says on the box: Durex easy-on condoms are now shaped to be easier to put on and to provide a better fit and feel during love making. Fetherlite condoms are ultra fine and extra sensitive.
Basically what the box is trying to say is that it's better than ordinary condoms. It is still made from the same natural rubber latex, but the boffins at Durex have made them better in fit and feel. Wow... guess they have been frivolously testing it on each other just to make sure...
I've used other condoms before and I can say that these are much better than the ordinary ones. The box says these are easy-on and boy are they easy-on. Just simple line it up with the top, hold the teat and roll it on! They weren't kidding bout the better fit either, it's tighter so you can feel more sensitivity when you're inside unlike the slightly baggier normal ones. These condoms do live up to their name fetherlite, being as they feel very light and thin. You can feel the heat and the tightening more with these on... ah man it rocks... you have no idea. The next part I would love to describe but I would leave that to your imagination and skip to the end part. After the deed is done just gently slide it off and tie a knot at the end and bin it. Easy to dispose of!
As you can see there is a ciao rating criteria here that comes after the review in a bunch of tick boxes, so I am going to answer the criteria in more detail(ish) way so it helps you guys understand how great this product is.
Does it irritate your skin? Nope no irritation whatsoever, it's like a second skin and doesn't cause me any problems! That is until I arrive to port, in which case my freedom fighter shrinks up like a raisin under a sunlight-enhanced magnifying glass beam. Of course mine is still rather large even in a shivelled state...
Smell: It smells like any other condom without a flavour, clinically. Then later it smells humanly. Humanly... what else could you call it? You want fruity flavours then it's best to check out other brands.
Reliability: If I shot acid bullets from my balls into this condom it would reflect them back. So reliable is this condom, it prevents conception and STDs (sexually transmitted disease, as if you didn't know already) from being passed on very effectively. It doesn't slip off during love making and it's all simply a case of 'slip and slide' thanks to the lube. I know because I've have plenty of practise :D
Why did you buy it?: Because I felt horny?
Would you recommend this to potential buyers?: If men are men then no matter what I say they will buy themselves a box of these, and then they will go hunting. Oh yes... classic male technique is don't masturbate, buy themselves a box of condoms and since they're gagging from sexual frustration they'll become proficient women hunters (in theory)... Growl...
So why am I writing this review and risking ridicule of my baffalo soldier on ciao? Basically people I lost a bet and this is my punishment. Frankly I am relieved they didn't want me to describe 'other' things...
I highly recommend these condoms as they kick so much arse! The closest you will ever get to feeling 'unprotected' while being protected. The two only problems I can think of is that the guy might not last as long because of the extra sensitivity, and the the condoms aren't designed for maximum pleasure for the ladies. But hey if you guys are like me and have lasting control over arriving early then it shouldn't be a too much of a hassle. You got wood? Get these babies! HOWL!!!!!!!!!!
Bonus section: I'm doing this alot now aren't I, adding a special bonus section after the review. Hehehe! Did you know the SAS (Special Air Service) use condoms to carry huge amounts of water inside then tie it up and put it into a sock for transport? Apparently condoms are fantastic containers for water as they are so strong, so in long missions where clean water is hard to come by they have these water balloons on hand. My mate thinks that they just made that story up and use the condoms for less 'noble' causes *cough* on each other *cough*. Other theories include uses them as durable toys i.e. COCK ROCKET! I personally have no idea, what do you think? Lube flavoured water... how do they drink that?
Advantages: Safe sex, Nice and thin, reasonable price, not too greasy Disadvantages: They come in twos which are a pain to separate, Funny taste
...Historically we have always used Durex fetherlight (yes, I know it’s spelt wrong, Durex’s fault not mine). Having not used condoms for a number of years I was a little bit concerned about what they were like now, boyfriend was not happy about my inability to get a doctors appointment for over a month and my forgetfulness when it comes to using my last packet of pills. I promised to buy them myself and get a great big packet, as compensation you understand. ... ...now ‘easy-on’ due to a new shape, which is good because putting the buggers on was always a problem. The box also tells me that they are ultra fine. Hmm, I like that, the word ultra seems to convey a kind of tissue paper thinness that we would wish for. The box also sports the all important British standard mark, this tells you that they’ve either been tested to within an inch of their life, or someone took a bribe (I was going to say back hander ...

Advantages: Stronger than Geoff Capes on steroids Disadvantages: Not as sensitive as 'going commando'
...raincoats in the house.
Durex Featherlite, is one such raincoat. A brand which comes with it a feeling of reassurance before you even open the pack, secure in the knowledge that the latex goodness contained within will see you through even the most rampant of encounters. The added bonus to this well-recognised product is the opportunity to examine the pack in highly congested chemists so onlookers would know that you were getting your oats (this ... ...have a hankering for more Durex delights, then you can visit their website at www.durex.com, a sight stuffed to the ribs with all things rubber (including a product information, education and a game to download called ‘egg invaders’, oh dear). There is also a care line number provided on the box; (0800) 338739, no doubt extremely useful if you have lost the instruction pamphlet and are worried about the success of your pioneering bedroom ...

Advantages: They're ultra sensitive Disadvantages: Might be a bit of a problem for men who are 'blessed'
...most expensive condoms in the Durex range (About £6 for 12) but are worth it for the extra sensitivity. They’re thin, but a tad slippery and leave your hands greasy due to the lubricant on them, so be careful when putting them on and try to calm down your sexual frenzy for a second.
The only disadvantage to Fetherlite is that it doesn’t roll down the entire length of my fella’s penis. He might think he’s a well hung sex machine, ... ...can’t help but worry about it slipping off. Not that I’m a bit ‘loose’ you understand. But after a few uses you can feel more confident about them and I’m happy to say there’ve been no trips to casualty to have these foreign bodies removed.
Of course, you all know about safe sex but for you dangerous fools who ‘don’t like the feel of ‘em’ (To be said in the kind of voice you use when impersonating ...

Advantages: Cheap, nice looking, comfortable, well lubricated Disadvantages: They can split unfortunately
...unreliable, for me, anyway.
Durex Fetherlite condoms are really lovely, I think, as they aren't that manky "coral" colour, rather a sort of beigy-white. They feel really thin under your fingers, but if you have a play with them, they resist breaking loads if you pull really hard. This throws the old excuse of "I can't wear one because I'm 'too big' " lies that men throw at you from time to time. Anyway, put that aside, and listen...these are really ... ...lubrication is good, although I have to say that It's a shame that Fetherlite condoms aren't spermicidically lubricated, which is something I think could be improved. Not being on the pill, spermicide would be a strong point to these. Anyway...even before you try them out, they are impressive.
And using them is great too. They are really thin, you hardly feel them at all. Having said that, maybe they could be improved by being a little bit larger ...

Advantages: good sensitivity Disadvantages: expensive hobby
...not agree. Durex Featherlite – a quality condom that is ultra thin, thus maximising sensation on your beef bayonet. These rubbers still provide excellent protection against potential unwanted offspring and filthy sexually transmitted diseases. When I have to use protection I always opt for these babies – they are a little more expensive than standard ones but the lubrication and the thinness is what you pay for. If you need to cover your ham clarinet ...

...Well I used to use Durex Extra Safe before my partner started the pill. I found the Extra Safe condoms a bit too thick and took all the sensation away for us guy's. It would be ideal if you do have problems with your sex life, if perhaps you get excited too quickly. The condom itself is as it states Extra Safe and in my opnion if fully correct.
If you are planning to have sex for a one night stand etc or do not know your partners history I would Highly Recommend them. However if you do know your partners history then maybe another product may be better. I did try the DurexFetherlite and found these to be much much better. You could feel alot more. If you are not sure what condom to use buy a few different ones and just inspect them. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Apart from all that the Durex Extra Safe condom is...

...I like Boots ultra-fine condoms as they are cheaper than other brands, and almost identical in size, shape, smell and feel. All in all, they are absolutely fine.
The price of a 12 pack is a couple of quid cheaper than the Durex alternative, and the packaging is quite funky, being bright green and black, too.
The condoms themselves, whilst being a rather naff looking shade of whitey-cream, they are very thin, and not too lubricated to be slippery which some others can be. They feel very comfortable, so I've been told, and they don't reek to high heaven. Another good point.
One thing I can't say is whether of not they are spermicidically lubricated. I have a feeling that they are, which is better than DurexFetherlite because those ones aren't. Not having a packet of these to hand (as most other brands are way way cheaper...
