Frequently asked questions
…and everything else you need to know
-
Did you know that Japan boasts the highest condom usage rate at over 45%? And India stands at just 9%? Japan’s production of exceptionally thin condoms allows consumers to prioritise on protection without compromising on pleasure.
-
Most condoms claiming to be ultra-thin are actually playing on a game of averages and are not consistently thin all through. The majority of condoms in the market today are close to 0.06mm thin, and usually always thicker at the tip—not great, since this is the most sensitive part—than the stated average. Only condoms thinner than 0.03mm are actually considered ultra-thin.
-
Yes—when it is Okamoto. The proprietary tech makes Okamoto’s ultra-thin condoms both lighter and stronger. Each one is electronically tested for safety and reliability, so you can be completely protected while feeling naturally closer.

It all comes down to what they’re made of. Okamoto’s latex condoms use Sheerlon, a proprietary material that’s thinner and silkier than regular latex. It glides smoothly, feels softer against the skin, and has none of that heavy, rubbery odour. Their clean, natural feel lets the moment take over without friction.
Then, there’s Okamoto 0.02, made from medical-grade polyurethane (PU). This is the same biocompatible material used in artificial blood vessels. It’s 3x stronger than latex, odourless, and ultra-thin, transmitting warmth so much more naturally. The sensation is as skin-on-skin as you can get. -
Yes! Traditional latex is the old-school condom material—stretchy, smelly, and widely used. Okamoto’s Sheerlon, their super advanced, high-tech latex was already far better, smoother, thinner and odour-free.
Okamoto has gone a step further. Their Polyurethane condoms are actually a revolutionary and landmark upgrade in condom technology. It is completely latex-free (means it’s great condom alternative for those who are seriously allergic to latex).
But it is the future for everyone else, too: it is thinner, stronger, and transfers heat more naturally than any other condom before, making intimacy feel truly premium. Think of PU as the next generation of protection—advanced, comfortable, and premium. Your sexual health deserves nothing less!
-
It means protection designed around a woman’s body, comfort, and wellbeing — not just performance.
Nearly 80% of other brand condoms available in India are flavoured or scented to hide the terrible smell of latex. But those added chemicals, meant to distract, can actually cause irritation or infection in women.
Okamoto takes a different path. By focusing purely on safety and sensation, and using clean materials that respect the body, Okamoto condoms don’t need to mask any undesirable fragrance or add any synthetic flavour. Okamoto’s Sheerlon latex is smooth and odour-free on its own, while the Polyurethane in the 0.02 condoms is medical-grade, hypoallergenic, and gentle even on sensitive skin.
