The city of New York has recently unveiled the launch of their freely distributed, NYC-branded condoms in ‘KYNG’ size.
Taking comments of the city’s citizens into consideration, The Health Department has announced that the condoms will not only be made available in a larger size, but they will also get a new look.
According to a press release announcing the launch of these condoms, "The new NYC Condom wrapper will be blue and more prominently feature the LifeStyles® brand name to emphasize that they are the same high-quality LifeStyles® product available in stores,"
"In addition, New Yorkers will now for the first time be able to choose the NYC “KYNG” Condom, an extra-large LifeStyles® condom branded with the NYC Condom logo. Both are currently in production and will be available throughout the city this summer."
Since its debut in 2007, the NYC condom campaign has been very successful and has distributed almost 250 million in "bars, clubs, restaurants, nail salons, barber shops, as well as hospitals, clinics and community based organizations."
To find out where you can get a free condom, call 311 or visit nyc.gov/condoms to find a location.
