Polyisoprene is often considered the “best of both worlds” for those with latex sensitivities. Here is how it compares:
Feel & Stretch: Unlike polyurethane, which is plastic-like and less stretchy, polyisoprene is a synthetic rubber. It offers the soft, elastic feel of latex without the proteins that cause allergies.
Heat Transfer: Polyurethane is the thinnest and conducts body heat best, but it has higher breakage/slippage rates. Polyisoprene is more durable and fits more snugly.
Lubricant: Both latex and polyisoprene cannot be used with oil-based lubes (they will break). Only polyurethane is compatible with all lubricants.
After polyurethane condom come into market and more and more matural, more and more latex allergic consumers tend to choose this new material now, because they find it’s more thinner and which also can give the skin feeling.
