Black Jack condoms were introduced in the 1990s by the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education, which provides a wide range of condoms. They are made of black latex. Marketers and sexual health advocates have used many different types of novelty condoms in an attempt to make them more appealing to users.

Black Jack condoms were in use in 1972. There was RFSU newspaper campaign about this product at that time.
