What they are good for is to be popped into a pocket (such as a jacket or purse) where they will not be squashed and twisted as you move about, and kept there until you get home and take them out. As such, they are the same as any normal foiled condom (but much more expensive).

I never got why people carry condoms in their wallets. Too bulky. Most people have something they carry on them regularly other than a wallet. I have condoms stuffed in several backpacks, my car, my motorcycle, favorite jackets, etc. I'm regular Branch Davidian of safe sex: one behind every door.
I'm surprised they don't have a cell phone sleeve with a fortified condom slot. Most people take better care of their cell phones than their wallets.
