I mentioned this once in another post, but I'll expand on it a bit here.<br>When I was a young lad, I learned that carrying a condom in a wallet would weaken it, since it would be constantly subjected to crushing pressure and often sliding or twisting pressure every time one sat down. During a stop at a gas station, I bought a small "travel tin" of aspirin. These are perhaps just a bit larger than 1" x 1 1/2" x 1/8" or so, and can just hold one condom of your favorite choice in its original wrapping, although it may take some care to fold the edges of the packaging in just right. These travel tins come in two sizes ... the normal size for normal tablets and the extra large size for extra strength tablets.<br>All joking aside, you really need the larger tin to comfortably hold a condom. I'm currently carrying an extra strength Excedrin tin, which happens to be painted white. Do not strip the paint off these, by the way. They rust if you do that. (I suppose you could seal it with some clear coat, but I don't care enough to do that.) I've carried one of these tins in my pocket for over a decade and a half, albeit not for survival purposes. So, I have never tried to fit one into a pocket survival tin. I prefer my survival tin to be well sealed and hard to get into and my first aid tin to be open and easily accessible. In such a sealed tin, there is no need for the extra protection of putting a condom in its own steel case, since it's already protected. However, in a soft sided nylon pouch, such a metal tin might be just the small but sturdy packaging you condom would need.<br>Of course, all things age, and you should swap out your condom periodically, just as you would any other expendable items you carry.<br>As for the container fetish ... I totally understand. My girlfriend gets a good laugh any time I buy anything that comes in a small metal container. She knows that odds are good I don't even care what's inside it and only bought it to see how I could use the box.<br>Stay safe,<br>J.T.<br><br>
