Turns out there IS more room in the cooler … market.
OtterBox, an outdoors company most recently known for its rugged smartphone cases, just entered the summer cooler fray with the launch of the Venture Cooler. Viewed as a customizable alternative to the Yeti, these 25-, 45- and 65-quart coolers can hold ice up to two weeks.
The big selling point here — besides being “bear resistant” — is a mounting system that allows you to personalize the coolers with cutting boards, dry storage trays and/or separators, among other add-ons.
The Venture also feature internal organization slots, a slanted interior bottom for easy draining, and one-handed latches. A new line of stainless steel tumblers (Elevation) will go on sale at the same time. A launch in early June is expected.
