Crafted from our proprietary MuleSkin fabrics and featuring the game-changing IM AirValve, these coolers are built to outlast your next beach day, hike, picnic, and more. The backpack sling strap provides convenient portability, making it easier than ever to carry your cooler wherever your adventures take you.
With its ultra-tough Muleskin exterior and interior, along with PolarLayer Insulation, this cooler ensures exceptional strength and superior ice retention. It can maintain ice-like temperatures for over 24 hours, allowing you to enjoy refreshing beverages and chilled snacks throughout the day. With a capacity of 10 Liters or 9 cans plus ice, its dimensions measure 9”L x 9”W x 18”H.
This lightweight cooler features a padded and ventilated sling strap, leaving your arms free to carry your surfboard, fishing pole, or any other adventure gear. It provides the perfect solution for those who seek a portable and convenient cooler that won't hinder their outdoor activities. Suited for both men and women, this hands-free cooler is ready to accompany you on any expedition.
When your cooler is empty and you need to move around, simply roll it up and pack it with ease to your next destination. This collapsible design ensures effortless transportation and storage. It also serves as an ideal carry-on for traveling parents or anyone desiring a reliable cooler upon arriving in paradise.
Designed with welded seams and a zipper-less closure, this cooler boasts waterproof capabilities, making it suitable for various outdoor activities. Its buoyant nature allows it to float alongside your kayak, thanks to the innovative IM AirValve that also enables the addition of air to the insulation layer. With this versatile cooler, you can enjoy your favorite beverages even when on the water.
Not shipped from Florida shipped from Oregon if you want to return will cost a lot I wanted to return would have cost 40.00 dollars so I kept it so glad I did best cooler I ever had and I am 71 years old and have had a lot kept stuff cold really cold for 2 days
I packed frozen bacon and scallops for a flight to the philipinnes .. 24+ hours later everything was still frozen (not rock hard like when I started the trip), but still frozen.
Not any worse than carrying a big jumbly ice chest. I carry it cross body and it does just fine.
As long as you roll it twice and clip it, it seals perfectly ... no problems with leaking and spilling and I've been using mine religiously for about a month. Solid purchase!
