I just got the ones that local Medical supply house uses so I don't have a recommendation for you.
But if you have never used them before (This may sound funny but it is not a joke) consider doing a little pruning first or it might do it for you. I will not elaberate more than that. If you don't get the hint PM me and I will expand.

...one that fits.
We use the mentor freedom cath latex and get ours from www.bestbuymedical.com in a box of 100.

I went and checked the mentor freedoms are the ones I use as well.

OP
I have tried the mentor but they seem to have a lot of room up top that could cause kinking. I am filmier with proper trimming..lol

Always be sure to do any trimming BEFORE donning the cath.

i also get the Freedom cath from my local medical supply.
I tried the non adheasive type but they just are not secure enough. Go with the sticky ones, the others just dont work right for diving.
I have used another brand i think they are called clear advantage with just as much luck as the Freedom. Heck they may be the same brand just one is clear and one is not.

I had a very painfull experience the first dive, trimming is not an option, its a requirement! Unless your a sadist.
