      The literal translation of what’s on the box makes it easier to understand:

      Width of the condom when laid flat: 52 mm

      It’s simply the easiest width measure you can do yourself.

        That isn’t equal to the “width” of your dick though. Diameter is closer.

        I guess it doesn’t really matter if the measure is standard (though elasticity would also affect fit) so you “learn your size” once, but it doesn’t seem super useful to me.

          Sure, but diameter is also harder to measure on something like a latex tube. Just measure the circumference, divide by 2, then measure the condom.

          I’d personally prefer it to be the circumference (so double the condom width).
