Just got my RTIC 30 and it's awesome. Use the lube it came with right away. You will notice a considerable improvement in the zipper resistance before/after. Also, it has a strong chemical smell inside. Put an open box of baking soda inside, close the lid and give it 48-72 hours and the smell will be gone.
It's much better using the straps so the weight is on your back than walking on a sloped beach with the cooler on just one side of you. I walk about a mile on the beach to where I snorkel and the straps make that much easier. Especially in the south Florida heat
That's how the beer comes when you buy a 6 pack. It just holds them together. It's like the old style clear plastic ones you see except these are made from recycled plastic and you can recycle them too.
It's the dark gray.I know it looks kind of pure in the video, I think that's just how the first ones were made. I have a 30 as well that I got about 9 months later and it doesn't have that purpleish color to it

Good info on the shoulder straps. Thanks!
Original ship date was may 14th which came and went. On the 19th the date was changed to June 4th and it shipped out on the 6th

Hi, Looks like a goodsoftpack. What are those yellow beer can protectors? Looks quite useful.

I added water to it and turned it over and it didn't leak at all
How has your cooler been holding up? I can't decide weather to get an Rtic or Engel or 20 or 30 quart. Thank you for the video
It's held up well. I also have the 30 which I use more and it's been holding up fine also.
Thanks for the review, what color is yours?

Purple*
Good idea with the backpack straps. Is it fairly comfortable when its loaded?

mine is on order status of 7-6 too but I don't think it has been shipped, was hoping to have it by Friday to take to Florida
Gary, I called and they said all orders for 7/1 to 7/10 are shipping this week... We will see.
+Kevin D hope to get it tomorrow
+gary r wishful thinking... I hope you get it
+Kevin D just got a email response, maybe 2 more weeks
how much can the 20 hold I know it says 20 but I have heard of reviews saying it barely holds 16?
The hard version cooler holds 20. I have the soft side 20 as well and I agree with 16 plus ice
