It's durable, leakproof, and spacious, plus easy to carry thanks to multiple handles and straps.

We tested the Hydroflask Day Escape 26L in two different real-world scenarios, including in the hot southern sun and out on a boat trip. The 600D polyester exterior is durable and waterproof, and we really liked how they worked it into the cute tote design. The fact that it’s leakproof, easy to carry, spacious inside (one of our moms was loving the fact she could lay a veggie tray on the bottom with no issues), and stylish put it at the top of our list. There are no additional pockets or storage options, but the tote does have built-in loops and attachment capabilities so you can customize it with compatible extras as needed.
One qualm was that the temperature retention wasn’t consistent. Most of the ice had melted within 2.5 hours when the cooler was out in Tennessee during the height of summer, but it kept more ice intact and drinks cool in lower temperatures out on the water. That said, we’re confident it could do the job on a day trip. We flipped the bag upside down when it was fully loaded and gave it a shake, and we’re happy to report there was no leaking. Overall, the Day Escape’s performance is outstanding, even after three months of real-world use.

The Tourit 30-can Cooler Backpack holds more like 20 cans with ice, and we love it for its bang-for-your-buck price and lightweight, multi-feature design. In addition to the main compartment, you’ll have your pick of extra storage options, including two side mesh pockets, a spacious front lid zip pocket, and a slim strap pocket (great for holding a or cash). It presents like a regular backpack and is easy to lift and carry, making it perfect for picnics in city parks. The thick-lined insulated interior is also leakproof (but the backpack itself isn't) and can keep ice for up to 16 hours. The padded, adjustable straps are comfortable, but there is no chest strap, and wearing the backpack at full capacity for significant distances may not be ideal for some. Unfortunately, we also experienced heavy leaking through the zippers and cans denting in the interior after we tossed this cooler off a table a couple times. However, no other damage was present, and we think this backpack performs admirably in most everyday scenarios.

This 12-can cooler lives up to the Yeti name and gave us impeccable ice and temperature retention. The cooler was tested multiple days at the beach, where it sat in the hot mid-80-degree sun for hours and still kept things notably cold. Cold cell insulation gives the cooler its superb ice retention and makes it perfect for use in hot weather or on overnight trips. Did we mention the heavy-duty, mildew-resistant over shell is not only durable but also blocks UV rays? If you’re hesitant about the single-compartment design, it does sport Yeti’s hitch-point grid that allows you to attach things to the exterior. Even when fully loaded with 12 cans and ice, the extra-thick shoulder strap made it feel like less of a haul, and you also have top and side handles as options. The durability of this totally leakproof cooler cannot be understated as we really put it to the test, from throwing it against rocks and floating it out in the salty ocean water to checking it in luggage. The price is hefty, but consider it an investment, because this baby will last.

What to Consider
If you’re looking to snag all the benefits of a hard-sided cooler with the flexibility that comes with a soft-side cooler, the RTIC Soft Pack should be your go-to — especially if you’re heading out on the water. The thick, heavy-duty nylon exterior is highly durable and escaped our toss tests and beatings with minor scuffs. Any sand, mud, or dirt easily just rinses off. Yes, the leakproof zippers are tight, but they kept the cooler leakproof during our upside-down shake test. A noticeably thick interior insulating layer excels at temperature retention — we left the cooler out in the summer sun for over two hours, and barely any ice melted, and the drinks were crisp and cool. Want to take this cooler in the water? Go for it without worrying about water leaking inside (or outside of the bag back in your car). One downside we should mention is that the cooler wasn’t as comfortable as we’d have liked with a heavy load and carried on the shoulder. We suggest two people carrying it via the tote handles when it’s packed full and not using it solo on any excursions with long walks. After three months of real-world testing, it still looks and feels brand-new.
The Details: 12, 20, 30, or 40 cans | 3 pounds for 20-can | 13.5 x 9.5 x 13.75 inches for 20-can | Leakproof | 24-hour ice retention

This 12-liter soft cooler was the perfect midsize we didn’t realize we desperately wanted for a day out at the beach with friends. It’s larger than a lunchbox cooler but still small enough to be manageable on an outing (and to fit in your suitcase). With nothing else, this ultra-portable cooler can carry around 12 cans. Since we were testing for temperature and ice retention, we filled it up with snacks for three: six cans, three sandwiches, a pack of string cheese, and a bag of ice — and it all fit easily and nice and cold as the cooler impressed us with its ability to retain about two-thirds of the ice after six hours at the beach in 80-degree weather. The padded strap kept it comfy on the shoulder, but we also found it easy to carry via the tote handles. Durability was not a problem, and wiping off the little bit of dirt from the exterior nylon material was painless. It’s even got a small stash pocket in the front, which we found perfect for hiding trash or holding keys.

Why We Love It
What to Consider
This insulated cooler backpack works perfectly for day trips where you’ll want to store both dry and chilled items. Only the bag’s lower zippered compartment is insulated, giving you a dedicated space for storing dry items and items that need chilling. Although the bag claims to be able to hold 24 cans, we could only squeeze in 10 cans comfortably (with ice) in the lower insulated space. (Note: more cans can be stored in the main compartment, but it’s not insulated.) The 600-denier water-resistant canvas material was extra durable, surviving our toss tests with top scores, but it didn’t perform as well as we wanted during the leak test. We don’t recommend storing any electronics in the dry compartment when the bottom is filled with ice unless the bag stays upright at all times.
This backpack can easily be slung over your shoulders and won’t stick out as a cooler among other commuter bags — it’ll be your little secret. We think it’s a go-to bag for bringing lunch to work. Having the overall design of a regular backpack worked in our favor regarding features, too. There’s a front zippered organization pocket, two stretchy mesh side pockets, and two front slip pockets, making it feel more like a regular everyday backpack that just happens to have a cooler compartment than a cooler backpack. We also love how the bag’s extra padding made it very comfortable to wear, even when full.

This is a durable, comfortable, and functional cooler that will last — plus, it's easy to store when not in use.
What to Consider
This collapsible cooler bag takes a cue from the dry-bag playbook with its convenient buckle roll top and waterproof welding seam design. We tested the large 23-liter size and could easily fill the bag to its 18-can capacity — with room to spare — and kept our beverages super cold. The top-loading design makes it a cinch to load, unload, and peek into the bag to suss out available room. When you’re not using the cooler, it conveniently flattens down for easy transport and storage. IceMule is known for its high-quality materials, and this bag held up against our durability tests, leading us to believe it’s in it for the long haul.
Packing food? The 18-inch height makes this bag great for stacking; just be sure any food is stored in sturdy, stackable plastic containers or boxes so nothing gets crushed. Overall, we found the weight was evenly distributed and the padded back and straps comfortable when wearing, but the chest strap does land at an awkward place for some people. Aside from the chest strap (which may depend on the wearer), we just wish this floatable, water-tight, and tough cooler bag had some exterior pockets.

Why We Love It
What to Consider
This 14-liter cooler bag is extremely packable and can easily compress into its own stuff sack, which makes it ideal for traveling. After filling it up halfway with ice, we were able to pack away a bottle of champagne, two tall cans, and four traditional sized cans. We noticed the cooler kept ice frozen for up to 18 hours, after which point it had completely melted, but the water stayed cold enough to keep the bag's contents cool until the 30-hour mark.
Crafted from soft and flexible ripstop nylon, the bag could easily be stuffed into any bag or luggage, which makes transporting it super easy. It also features supplemental pockets great for storing smaller belongings. While its packable design is its crowning feature, we noticed that the cooler bag is not watertight and will sweat and leak once the ice inside of it has melted. We also found its shoulder straps to be uncomfortable if the cooler is filled up with heavier items, and continued to notice this during three months of at-home testing. We think it's an excellent bag for transporting just a few items at a time.
The Details: 14 liters | 14.7 ounces | 18 x 9 x 5 inches

What to Consider
If you're a fan of day trips, consider this 15-liter cooler from dbest Products. It's extremely collapsible and can easily be folded flat to pack away, and can be expanded within 90 seconds by attaching a removable hard support to its base to give it structure. While its collapsible nature is ideal for maximizing limited space, we found that the cooler needs to be mostly filled with ice and cans to prevent it from collapsing in on itself. The bag also features external pockets including one large front zippered pocket and two side mesh pockets which are great for storing items like sunscreen, snacks, smaller electronics, books, or additional cans.
The lightweight cooler features a small but sturdy telescoping handle and two wheels, which we found cannot rotate 360 degrees. Because of this, the cooler tends to glide better on hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. While the bag kept our cans cold while out in 70-degree weather, we weren’t seriously impressed with its insulation ability, which leads us to believe that it would be better used for shorter day trips. After six months of regular use, we've continued to be impressed with the cooler's functionality and durability.
The Details: 15.1 liters | 3 pounds | 12 x 10 x 36 inches
Other Coolers We Liked
One cooler didn't perform well enough to make our main list but is still worth mentioning. While the following presented a few concerns, it might still be a good option for the right user.
Arctic Zone Titan Deep Freeze Wheeled Cooler: We’re fans of the extra storage from the two front pockets and the two side mesh pockets that are big enough for magazines or books. While the detachable wheeled trolley can be extremely convenient, we found it difficult to use over bumpy terrains.
Our Testing Process
These products were evaluated as part of two different cooler testing processes. All backpack-style coolers that made the list were tested in our very own in-house testing lab. Each bag underwent a line of rigorous testing, allowing us to gauge their performance side-by-side and see how they measured up when it came to capacity (both full of 12-ounce cans and then one-third filled with cans and two-thirds filled with ice, the recommended ratio for optimal cooling and ice retention), comfort while wearing, extra features such as storage pockets, durability, leakage, and ice retention. We packed the coolers full, strapped them on and walked around wearing them, and did a push test off of a table. After two hours, backpacks were placed on their side for five minutes and inspected for leakage.
Non-backpack coolers were tested out in the real world on multiple outings. Environments included grocery shopping, picnics, beach days, and festivals. Before taking off, we noted the overall quality and appearance of the coolers, including any extra features like storage compartments. Coolers were filled with beverages plus ice. After 2.5 hours, we recorded the ice retention and the temperature of the drinks. Durability was tested by tossing the cooler down the stairs (twice!) and slamming it on a hard floor surface before checking for any damage or wear.
We will continue testing these coolers over time, collecting insights for an additional six months and updating our picks and descriptions as necessary.
Tips for Buying an Insulated Cooler Bag
Carefully consider capacity and size needs
Like lunch boxes, insulated cooler bags come in all shapes, sizes, and capacities. Think about what you’ll want to pack inside the cooler, now and in the future. Remember to factor ice or ice packs into your capacity needs (capacity is often advertised without ice included).
Anticipate the right accessories for your needs
Consider your insulated cooler bag as an investment. Think of different ways you will need to use the insulated cooler bag down the line. Buying a bag that can be accessorized may prevent you from having to purchase a different bag in the future. Some common accessories include ice packs, carabiner clips, and extra storage pockets.
Consider using ice packs instead of loose ice
Using molded ice packs is a water-friendly alternative to fresh ice. Ice packs can be reused and will avoid possible leakage as they defrost. Keep an eye out for coolers that are designed to be used with specific ice packs or have room inside to fit an ice pack.
Think about what features you need
Coolers with comfortable and thoughtful carrying features — such as padded straps, adjustable straps, and multi-carry options — can make or break your experience with a cooler bag, especially as you get into larger capacity sizes. You should also think about the situations in which you envision using your cooler bag. Consider how and where you will want to access the contents of your cooler bag, whether you’ll have a solid flat surface to set it down on, and any portability needs you may have, and choose styles with the most beneficial shapes, materials, overall look, and access points for your needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are insulated cooler bags as good as hard coolers?
The answer depends on your specific conditions and needs. Hard coolers are known for having better durability in rugged scenarios and providing longer ice retention than soft, insulated cooler bags. Hard coolers are best for lengthy trips like camping, while insulated cooler bags are better for portability and organization.
-
Will insulated cooler bags leak?
Finding a leakproof cooler bag is key for preventing spills and for temperature retention. Lower-end cooler bags are less likely to be equipped with water-tight, leakproof zippers and closures. If you’re concerned about leaks, make sure to pick cooler bags with explicitly leakproof closures and lining.
-
How much ice should I put in my cooler?
When using fresh ice, the minimum suggested amount of ice to use is a 50/50 split, though it truly depends on what’s inside and how and where you’ll be using the cooler. The higher the ratio of ice, the longer the cooler will retain cool temperatures. Some manufacturers advise filling the cooler with two-thirds ice and one-third contents.
-
How should I clean my insulated cooler bag?
Dip a soft sponge or microfiber cloth into some soapy water and gently clean the inside of your insulated cooler. For more stubborn stains and stickiness, scrub the areas with a bristled cleaning brush.

When shopping for an insulated lunch bag or cooler bag, there are certain features that are essential for ensuring it meets your needs. These are what most customers look for:
-
Insulation: It is important to choose a bag that offers proper insulation to keep your food cold or warm for hours. The type of insulation used, the thickness of the insulation, and the quality of the insulation are all important factors to consider.
-
Size: Make sure you choose the right size bag for your needs. Consider how much food and drink you need to carry, as well as the size of the containers you'll be using. You don't want a bag that is too small or too big, as either can result in your food getting too warm or not being able to fit everything you need.
-
Durability: Look for a bag that is made from high-quality materials and is built to last. The zippers, seams, and handles should be strong and sturdy, so you can rely on the bag to last for years to come.
-
Ease of cleaning: A bag that is easy to clean and maintain will keep looking good for years. Consider a bag that is wipe-clean, or that has a detachable, machine-washable liner, if you prefer.
-
Style: Choose a bag that is stylish and practical, so you can use it for both work and play. Look for bags that are available in a range of colours and patterns, so you can find one that matches your personal style.
-
Eco-friendly: Consider the impact your bag is having on the planet. Look for bags that are made from sustainable materials and that are produced in an environmentally responsible way.
