Know before you buy
Yes, the main compartment is designed to fit six 12-ounce cans comfortably. While it is insulated, keep in mind that adding loose ice will take up some of that capacity, so using slim ice packs is recommended to maximize space.
The cooler features a separate, insulated top compartment specifically designed to store food items like sandwiches or snacks. This keeps them protected from the weight of the cans stored in the main section below.
The main compartment is seam-sealed, which prevents melted ice or spills from leaking through the bottom. However, it is always best to keep the bag upright to ensure the best performance.
The Rain Defender durable water repellent finish is designed to shed light rain and moisture, keeping the exterior dry. While it is highly durable for outdoor work environments, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Yes, the cooler includes both a top handle and an adjustable shoulder strap, allowing you to switch between carrying styles. The compact 9" x 10" x 7" footprint makes it easy to manage on public transit or while walking.
