Who's Your Caddy?

by James Wortman

These clever condom containers put the “fun” in functionality.

Condoms work hard to keep you and your partner safe, but are you protecting them in return? Keeping condoms just anywhere— a cluttered dresser drawer, your pocket or purse—puts them at risk for tearing or drying out.

Pottery magnate Jonathan Adler offers a bedside solution with his line of high-end condom caddies ($55, jonathanadler.com), available in white porcelain or brown stoneware.

“Though we know condoms are vital to safe sex, they [can] have a bit of an embarrassing air about them,” says company spokesperson John Ehlers. “Keeping them in an attractive vessel takes the fumbling around [and embarrassment] out of the equation.”

A stainless steel alternative is the spring-loaded Philippi condom dispenser ($38, canoeonline.net). For a more portable and affordable option, try Condomania’s condom compacts ($4.95, condomania.com). Available in a variety of colors, each compact holds two condoms.
