Extensive Definition
Pronto condoms are a brand of sheath being released in South
Africa, designed by Willem van Rensburg. The outside protective
packaging acts as the condom applicator as well, which reduces the
time needed to utilize the condom. The designer was inspired to
create a new style of condom because, according to him, people find
the slow process of applying a condom is "a passion-killer and
they're willing to take their chances."
