Award-winning artists Smino and Akeem Ali join forces with SKYN KING as faces of the “Kings Don’t Settle” campaign
NEW YORK, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SKYN, the #1 non-latex condom brand in the world and U.S., proudly introduces SKYN KING, a premium line of large condoms crafted for superior comfort, confidence, and pleasure. Made with an advanced, patented, non-latex material designed to adapt smoothly & seamlessly to your body for the most natural fit, SKYN KING condoms give you the freedom and unbeatable comfort to feel like you’re wearing nothing at all.
To deepen its understanding, SKYN sat down with The Gentlemen’s Factory, a community that supports the growth of men of color across business and culture. Tapping into their real stories and emerging needs, SKYN KING strives to reflect the emotional range, self-awareness, and confidence of the men it serves. What emerged was a clear through line: choosing what truly fits – physically, emotionally, and relationally – is an act of care, and care is power.
“Modern masculinity is about more than virility – it’s about meaningful connection, shared pleasure, and the confidence to be yourself,” said Laurent Faracci, CEO at Lifestyles Healthcare.
Featured in the “Kings Don’t Settle” campaign are acclaimed artists Smino and Akeem Ali – bending genres, breaking molds, and bringing their full selves to the mic and the moment. Personifying the SKYN KING ethos, they’ll both appear in exclusive content that explores the power of intimacy, identity, and not settling – in any area of life.
To celebrate the launch, SKYN KING will host an immersive experience at this year’s Roots Picnic in Philadelphia, celebrating Black culture, connection, and confidence. Starting May 19th, Consumers can enter for a chance to win an all-inclusive VIP package to Roots Picnic by nominating a “King” in their life – someone who embraces their power without compromise. Furter details and entry information are available on @SKYN’s Instagram page. Terms and conditions apply.
SKYN KING is now available at CVS and Target (from $7.49), with more retailers rolling out soon. The line includes SKYN King Large – a large fit, ultra-soft condom, and SKYN King Elite Large Extra Glide – an ultra-thin, ultra-soft condom that is enhanced with 40%* more long-lasting lubricant for maximum comfort.
