Friction that drags, latex that reeks, condoms that feel like raincoats? No thanks. Here's how Kimono condoms skip the mood killers and deliver what you're really here for: connection.
The Kimono Difference: Where Science Meets Sensation
Since day one, Kimono has had a simple mission: make protection that doesn’t get in the way. And that’s exactly what we do. Backed by decades of R&D, obsessive testing, and a little Japanese engineering magic, Kimono condoms are barely there, designed to disappear.
Here’s how we keep things smooth, sensitive, and seriously impressive:
-
Premium Natural Rubber Latex: From select rubber trees and processed with a brand-secret compound, then refined to create our renowned sheerness for superior performance, softness, and purity.
-
Tested for Quality: Condoms undergo rigorous quality checks—including electric current testing to detect microscopic pinholes, plus stretch and water burst tests—to ensure uncompromising reliability.
-
Japanese Precision: Made in Japan, with specialized condom manufacturing, and engineered with exacting and meticulous standards that built our legacy.
-
MicroThin Innovation: At just 0.045mm, Kimono MicroThin is among the thinnest latex condoms you can buy—up to 23% thinner than leading competitors “thin condoms” and 33% thinner than standard condoms—delivering next-to-nothing feel with next-level strength.
-
Low-Odor Latex: when you buy the best latex and you focus on all aspects of the consumer experience, you develop manufacturing techniques that eliminate the strong latex smell that often kills the mood. We do the science so you can experience your pleasure.
We top it off with just the right amount of clean, body-safe lubricant that gives you that Kimono silky smooth feeling. A sleek fit that doesn’t bunch, roll, or distract from the moment.
Mood Killers vs. Mood Makers
Let’s be real. You shouldn’t have to pause the moment to wrestle with your condom. But all too often, that’s exactly what happens. The overwhelming latex smell. The drag (literally) of friction. The thick, clunky feel that makes everything feel... interrupted.
Mood = gone.
Here’s why some condoms kill the mood:
-
They smell like rubber.
-
They feel too thick.
-
They feel gritty or powdery.
-
They cause friction or drag.
-
They roll or bunch up.
-
They dull sensation.
And here’s why Kimono doesn’t:
-
Low-odor latex means no disruptive smell.
-
Ultra-thin design (just 0.045mm) delivers skin-to-skin sensation.
-
Silky lubricant and premium latex reduce drag and friction.
-
Tailored, comfortable fit stays in place without distraction.
-
Japanese engineering ensures precision, consistency, and performance.
For nearly 40 years, Kimono has changed the experience for millions of Americans.
Feel Everything. Miss Nothing.
When your condom works with you, not against you, everything just... works. Kimono is proof that safety, comfort, and sensation can coexist in one ultra-thin package.
That’s been our promise since day one. Still is.
We’ve invested in building an entire family of condoms that deliver that same barely-there experience. Kimono costs a little more because we invest in the science—so you can experience the very best in ultra-thin protection. Because when the fit is right and the feeling is real, nothing gets in the way.
