I've always preferred the japanese condoms to the north american ones because they are much thinner. I guess it depends on the type of sex you are having and how crazy you are getting but i personally have only ever had one break on me while i found some of the north american brands to be less reliable even though they were thicker. I love to feel the warmth of the pussy enveloping my cock, something you just don't get with a condom that is the same thickness as a latex glove. Japanese, just like the cars, a bit more expensive, but definitely worth it. My favorites are the Crowns, i find them at least one step up from the Kimono's.
