Having an ice-cold beverage on hand – at all times – during the summer is ideal, but carrying around a bulky cooler is, well, less so. Thankfully, the ICEMULE PRO 23L Realtree Wave has been designed specifically to free up your hands while you’re walking, hiking or trekking to the beach. Ergonomically designed to be carried on your back like a comfortable, premium backpack, the Pro 23L remains secure and buttoned-up. In fact, that’s kind of ICEMULE’s thing: from the single backpack sling strap on its Classics coolers to the double padded backpack straps and dual-zone suspension system on the ICEMULE BOSS®, no coolers are easier to carry. Durable, spacious and highly portable, this hands-free cooler is a necessity for your summer.
