Polyurethane and Polyisoprene condoms are made from other synthetic materials

Polyurethane condoms are produced be the same width and thickness as latex condoms, with most polyurethane condoms thickness is between 0.04 mm and 0.07 mm

Polyurethane can be considered better than latex in some ways: it delivery heat better than latex, is not as sensitive to temperature and ultraviolet light, so has less rigid storage requirements and a longer shelf life, can be used with oil-based lubricants, is less allergenic than latex, and does not have an odor. Polyurethane condoms have approved by FDA for sale in the America as an effective method of contraception and HIV prevention, and under laboratory conditions have been shown to be just as effective as latex for these purposes.

But polyurethane condoms are less elastic than latex ones, and may be more likely to slip or break than latex, lose their shape or bunch up more than latex and the price are more expensive.

Polyisoprene is a synthetic version of natural rubber latex. But it is significantly more expensive, it has the advantages of latex, such as being softer and more elastic than polyurethane condoms without the protein that is responsible for latex allergies. Like polyurethane condoms, polyisoprene condoms have done great better job of transmitting body heat. Unlike polyurethane condoms, they cannot be used with an oil-based lubricants.
