Having an ice-laden cooler filled with freezing-cold drinks can be exactly the refreshment needed during a hot day at the range, but the bulky, heavy dimensions of many outdoor-oriented coolers can prevent consumers from dragging them along on their trips. With the all-new Cordova Soft-Side Cooler, shooters and outdoor enthusiasts now have a lightweight, packable option that can hold plenty of drinks and keep them ice-cold during an extended shooting session.

Each Cordova Soft-Side Cooler is constructed from proven 1000-Denier nylon, which can be counted on to hold together in any kind of outdoor environment, and the shell is sealed with a waterproof liner and zippered opening, so users don't have to worry about leakage if the cooler tips over. On the sides of the nylon shell are reinforced straps and loops, providing tie-down points for consumers who plan to stash their cooler on a boat, in a car or on top of an ATV for a trek into the wild. After transport, carry straps made from durable nylon allow the cooler to be carried by hand. The straps are built with daisy-chain loops, so outdoor explorers can secure the rig to a daypack for hiking or add on keys, lights and other accessories compatible with a carabiner clip.

The interior of the Soft-Side Cooler measures 14.5 inches wide, 10.5 inches high and 7.75 inches deep, providing enough room for up to 16 12-ounce cans chilled by up to 10 pounds of ice. When empty, the total weight of the product is a scant two pounds, and the flexible construction means that it can be stashed anywhere for storage. Featuring an all-gray color with black accents, the Cordova cooler is covered by the company's three-year warranty and retails at a suggested price of $169.99.
