Know before you buy
Under controlled testing conditions at 90°F, this cooler provides up to 7 days of ice retention. Real-world performance may vary based on how often you open the lid and the temperature of the items you place inside.
These pads allow you to choose between a smooth surface for easy sliding when loading the cooler into a vehicle, or a textured, anti-skid surface to keep the cooler securely in place on slick boat decks or truck beds.
Yes, the integrated handles are designed to be rugged enough to serve as tie-down loops. This makes it easy to secure the cooler to your boat or vehicle without needing extra hardware.
Yes, the lid features an integrated fish measuring tool, which is convenient for quickly checking your catch while out on the water.
The Yukon Cold Locker features 3 inches of polyurethane insulation in the lid and 2 inches in the body. This heavy-duty construction, combined with Igloo's Cool Riser Technology, significantly elevates its thermal performance compared to typical recreational coolers.
The cooler uses flexible rubber latches with built-in finger grips, making them easy to open and close even when your hands are wet. Because they are made of rubber, they are more resistant to snapping or breaking than rigid plastic latches.
