ICEMULE Coolers

Looking over your memories from coolers past, when it was time to keep beverages on ice back in the day, this likely meant pulling that old blocky behemoth of a cooler out of storage, loading it up and hefting it to wherever it would sit for the duration of the day. Sometimes the cooler would be so loaded and unwieldy that two people were needed to simply move it into place. This makes you wonder how one is supposed to truly get out and explore while still staying hydrated with a welcome frosty drink. You aren't the first to ponder this conundrum, and so enters Icemule Coolers to save the day and satiate your thirst for both adventure and ice-cold water.

The founder of Icemule, James Collie, found himself wondering why so many popular coolers on the market were big, boxy and not meant to move with you. He decided to try his hand at finding his own solution on a whim before heading out on a warm springtime hike. He took a few plastic trash bags and lined his trusty backpack before loading it up with ice, food and beverages for the trek.

Because first ideas and tries rarely work as hoped and planned, and because this wouldn't be much of a story if all ended well with Collie's initial cooler workaround, it should come as no surprise the trash bag-lined backpack cooler ended up being a bit of a disaster. The plastic bags ripped mid-journey, sending icy-cold water rushing down his back. Now not only was he sopping wet, but he still ended up with soggy sandwiches and less-than-chilled drinks. This first try may have ended up seeming like a lose-lose situation, but it led Collie to a winning idea: Icemule Coolers.

The brand's various lines of soft-sided coolers are meant to keep food and drinks incredibly cold, because you shouldn't have to forgo tasty morsels and frosty thirst-quenchers while you're out moving and exploring. Most importantly, coolers from Icemule are anything but bulky and unwieldy.
