Now, this is something you don’t hear about everyday!
The Health Department of New York City has just launched a new look for their extra-large sized condoms, naming it the “KYNG” condom.
In honor of National Condom Day, which happens to be Valentine’s Day, LifeStyles manufactured the new condom that has the NYC logo on it.
According to CBS New York, Assistant Commissioner Dr. Blayne Cutler said of the new condom look:
“We have always distributed larger-size condoms through the New York City Department of Health. But because many New Yorkers were asking us to have a branded larger-size condom, we decided to bring the larger-size condom into the NYC Condom brand. Our standard LifeStyles condom – the NYC Condom – will have a bright blue wrapper, and it will more prominently feature the LifeStyles brand name, because we wanted to emphasize to New Yorkers that these are the same high-quality LifeStyles condoms that are available in stores.”
The reason for the new look is because of increased feedback coming from those who wanted more use of them:
“In the past year, we have participated in over 600 community events, and we’ve reached more than 25,000 New Yorkers, and they’ve told us that they wanted to see an updated look, and also to have a larger-size branded condom as part of our repertoire.”
The new condom is set to hit NYC stores and the streets starting this summer. Apparently the NYC Condom program has been very successful in promoting safer sex.
