How to put it together
- 1
Put on your comfortable base layers, such as a plain white t-shirt and lightweight pants.
- 2
Step into the inflatable condom suit, pulling it up to your waist and inserting your arms into the sleeves.
- 3
Ensure the battery pack is loaded with fresh batteries, clip it to your waistband, and plug in the fan.
- 4
Zip up the suit completely and tighten any drawstrings at the neck, wrists, or ankles to seal the air inside.
- 5
Turn on the fan switch and wait about 1-2 minutes for the suit to fully inflate.
- 6
If opting for the 'Captain Condom' superhero variant, skip the inflatable suit and wear a condom-shaped headpiece, blue cape, red briefs over blue tights, and a utility belt.
Makeup & hair
Keep hair simple and tucked away if wearing a headpiece. No special makeup is required, but you can wear bright, comic-book-style face paint if going as a superhero variant.
Condom for couples, groups, kids & more
- couples
- One person wears the condom suit, and the other wears a DIY cardboard birth control pill pack or a giant cardboard tissue box.
- group
- A group can go as a variety pack of condoms, with each person wearing a different colored inflatable suit or wrapper tunic.
- Plus size
- Inflatable suits are naturally spacious and fit most body types comfortably due to the constant airflow.
Tips
- Always carry extra AA batteries, as inflatable suit fans can drain batteries over a long party night.
- Keep your base layers lightweight, as inflatable suits can get warm inside despite the fan.
- Make sure you have a clear line of sight through the face opening before walking around crowded spaces.
Condom costume FAQ
- How does the inflatable condom costume stay inflated?
- It features a small, battery-operated fan that clips to your belt or pocket, constantly blowing air into the sealed suit to keep it upright.
- Can I sit down while wearing an inflatable condom costume?
- Yes, but you must sit carefully. The air will displace, making the suit puff out in other areas, so it is best to stand or deflate it slightly before sitting.
- What is the 'Captain Condom' costume?
- It is a retro superhero parody costume featuring a condom-shaped headpiece, a blue cape, red briefs worn over tights, and a utility belt.
