Tested by IvyEverything in this shop went out on a real trip with me before it earned a listing. Wet, cold, dropped, packed out. This one passed.
Twenty hours. That is how long this insulated backpack cooler holds 32 degrees F with enough ice in it, which covers a full day on the water and the drive home. Five layers of insulation and 10 mm PE foam do that work, and both of your hands stay free.
Holds 36 or 54 cans with ice so one person carries the drinks for the whole group.
Hot pressed seamless liner keeps melted ice in the bag and off your back.
600D Oxford with waterproof PVC coating sheds rain, wet sand and the scrape of a tailgate.
Top, front and hidden zip pockets plus two mesh side sleeves keep keys, utensils and bottles out of the ice.
MOLLE webbing and a bottle opener on the shoulder strap let you hang a pouch and crack one open without digging.
By the third beach day you stop thinking about it, which is what you want from a cooler that carries itself.
