Provided is a chloroprene copolymer latex composition, from which a molded article having excellent mechanical properties and flexibility can be produced even when the chloroprene copolymer latex composition is vulcanized and molded under milder conditions than ever before. The chloroprene copolymer latex composition comprises a chloroprene copolymer latex (A), a metal oxide (B), a vulcanization accelerator (C) and an antioxidant agent (D). The chloroprene copolymer latex (A) is a latex containing particles of a chloroprene copolymer that is a copolymer of chloroprene (A-1), 2,3-dichloro-1,3-butadiene (A-2) and sulfur (A-3). The content of sulfur (A-3) in the chloroprene copolymer is 0.1 to 1.0 part by mass inclusive relative to 100 parts by mass, i.e., the total amount, of chloroprene (A-1) and 2,3-dichloro-1,3-butadiene (A-2). |
