Often customers will ask me ?what is the difference between the Texas condom latex catheter and the new Optima Conveen silicone catheter?? The Texas catheter is the older type of condom catheter which some people have allergies to, due to the latex material. The only advantage to this catheter is that it is a little more flexible than the silicone. An offset to this would be the potential for it to slip off more easily. The new Optima Conveen from Coloplast is manufactured from silicone, which eliminates any allergic reaction. It also offers an anti-kink nozzle preventing any blockage. This catheter has a nice discreet package which can be held in your pocket without damaging the catheter. Lastly it offers a very simple hoop that your finger can hook allowing a pulling motion to apply the catheter to the penis. This makes getting it on a lot easier especially for those with some manual dexterity issues.
