The thinnest condoms in general use are polyurethane ones sold in the US as Trojan Supra - they cost about 5 times as much as latex condoms, but are about 0.025mm thick.

They don't stretch like latex though so feel very different.
OK, so I got the box of Supras yesterday and it says on the box that a "study is ongoing" and that pregnancy prevention rates with Supra condoms is unknown. That's a little bit scary. Anyone happen to know anything about the study?
