Backpack Coolers & Premium Soft Coolers

A soft cooler is a lightweight, portable cooler designed to keep food and drinks cold while offering easier carrying and storage compared with traditional hard coolers.

With a flexible design and comfortable carrying options, soft coolers are ideal for outdoor adventures where mobility matters — from camping and fishing trips to beach days and boating.

Soft coolers are a great choice when you need cold storage without the size and weight of a traditional hard cooler.

They are easier to carry, fit into more spaces, and adapt better to outdoor activities where you are constantly moving. Whether you are walking to a campsite, loading gear onto a boat, or spending a day outdoors, a soft cooler helps keep essentials within reach.

The backpack cooler depends on how you spend your time outdoors.

If you are hiking, fishing, kayaking, boating, or moving between locations, a backpack-style cooler helps keep your hands free while carrying your food and drinks comfortably.

If you spend more time relaxing at the beach, camping, picnicking, or sharing drinks with friends, a soft cooler with quick and convenient access may be a better fit.

7 Tips to Get the Best Performance From Your Cooler

1. Pre-Chill Your Cooler Before Packing
Before loading your cooler, add a bag of ice and let it sit for a few hours. This helps bring down the internal temperature, so your cooler doesn't waste energy cooling itself once it's packed.

2. Follow the 2:1 Ice-to-Contents Ratio
For longer-lasting cooling, aim for about two parts ice to one part food and drinks. More ice means better coverage and longer ice retention, especially on hot days.

3. Keep the Lid Closed as Much as Possible
Every time you open your cooler, warm air gets inside. Open it only when needed, grab what you need quickly, and close it tightly to keep the cold air in.

4. Pack Cold Food and Drinks
Always chill your drinks and food before placing them inside. Starting with cold items helps your cooler maintain its temperature and keeps ice from melting too quickly.

5. Combine Block Ice and Cube Ice
Block ice lasts longer, while cube ice fills empty spaces and improves cold coverage. Using both together helps create a more efficient cooling setup.

6. Keep Your Cooler Out of Direct Sunlight
Heat is one of the biggest factors that affects ice retention. Whenever possible, place your cooler in the shade or cover it with a towel to help reduce heat exposure.

7. Pack Your Cooler the Right Way
Start with a layer of ice at the bottom, add your chilled food and drinks, then finish with more ice on top. Keeping ice around your items helps maintain a colder temperature for longer.
