I Just Can't Seem To Warm Up To These

For a condom, this works just fine. For a warming condom, well, use a warming lube you're compatible with, because these just don't 'heat up.'
Published:
Pros
No latex smell, reservoir tip, comes lubricated.
Cons
Warming sensation doesn't really warm, not for overly thick guys.

extremely useful review
Lifestyles sat down one day and started thinking about new products they could release that would be really awesome and boost sales. One of those products was their "warming pleasure" condoms.

How these condoms theoretically work is that the lubricant used 'activates' by natural body moisture and heats up during lovemaking. In actuality they are a good reliable condom, but don't seem to heat things up. The design also features a reservoir tip as well as a flared head for "ultimate sensitivity and comfort."

The average condom comes in at 7.5" long, 2.04" wide at the base and down the shaft, and .002" thick. These condoms come in at 7.75" long, 2" wide at the base and along the shaft, the head is 2.25" wide, and are .0024" thick.

Everywhere I've seen these condoms, I've seen the fact that they're supposed to warm up during sex and that they're thin for extra feeling. Given that they're actually as thick as the average condom, they're really not going to feel much different from the average condom in that regard.

Really thick guys might have a problem but most guys will be just fine.

This condom does come lubricated, but if it isn't enough for you or you feel you need to add more during use, you can use your favorite water based or silicone based lube. Never ever use anything oil based, such as body lotion, petroleum jelly, mineral oil, or an oil based lube, with latex condoms as the oil can degrade the latex material and increase the risk of breaking.

There was no discernible latex smell and I haven't personally tasted them. I figured if the condom was supposed to get warm with friction then it probably wasn't internally friendly.

You should store these condoms at room temperature. Protect them from prolonged periods of exposure to extreme high or low temperatures, moisture, direct sunlight and fluorescent light. If the condom is sticky or brittle or looks damaged, don't use it.

You use these the same way you use any other condom with a reservoir tip, pinch the tip to remove all the air, then roll down the shaft.

I haven't ever had a Lifestyles condom break on me. At least while being used. I have had one or two that the band at the base snapped off while my fiance was trying to tie it off when we were done. This specific one happened to be one of the ones that did.
Experience
Try as I might, I just can't seem to "warm up" to these warming condoms by Lifestyles. He said he could feel a little bit of warmth, and I suppose I felt something that could be considered warmth, but it also could have just been the natural friction of us having sex.

As a condom? Just fine. For a warming sensation? Find a warming lube that you like and are compatible with and use a regular condom. Or use this one, it's basically a regular condom.
Follow-up commentary
I still don't like it is kind of harsh I guess. I still can't feel any real warming with these condoms is more like it. We've still got a few laying around, and they still don't really do anything for either of us than keep his semen all nice and captive for easy cleanup.
