Pelican Soft Cooler ($230-$330)
A proper cooler is an essential piece of gear for any summer outing, and while many options abound, few compare to the quality, reliability, and portability of Pelican’s stylish Soft Cooler.
Ideal for individual or small group day trips to the beach, the pool, the game, or even a hike, the Pelican Soft Cooler is a lightweight alternative to traditional hard-sided coolers and flimsy soft ones that often leak or tear after a just a few uses. Thanks to a 100% leak-proof Tzip Zipper and double-coated 840D TPU body, you’ll never have to worry about spillage from inside. The rugged fabric construction stays waterproof and easily holds up to everyday wear and tear, not-to-mention more extreme conditions that would typically shred other coolers.
The Pelican is a lot more comfortable than traditional coolers too. It’s built with a detachable strap specifically designed for all-day usage along with a quick-access dual lock buckle system that makes opening and closing a cinch. There are even stainless steel tie-downs that double as bottle openers, ensuring your beers stay put in transit before easily popping off at your destination.
The cooler comes in black with thick white logo branding and is currently available in three different sizes—a 12-can fit, 24-can, and 48-can.
