I did a search, didn't see it posted here.

RTIC Coolers (Pronounced Arctic)
The Direct To Consumer Retailer of Extreme Rotomolded Coolers

We are a direct to consumer retailer. We offer a very compelling value proposition on quality rotomolded coolers. We're the brand, the importer, the shop, and the marketing arm, all in one. We intentionally forgo the traditional cooler distribution channel that the other brands are tied to because this outdated distribution channel is expensive. By cutting out the big box retailers and using word of mouth & social media to promote our coolers versus paying for high priced ambassadors and commercials, we are able to offer high quality coolers that have all of the features our customers want - at half the price you can buy a comparable cooler in a retail outlet.

The company is based in Houston Texas and has 5 distribution warehouses located in Fresno California, Chicago Illinois, Houston Texas, Atlanta Georgia & Harrisburg Pennsylvania.

Must be Yetis that they are getting wholesale and just up-charging a little more. They look identical.
How or why would someone think they could build that and have no repercussions from Yeti?

I can't picture the decal looking too good on my truck. I'll have to see a few next to some Salt Life stickers before I make a decision.

Our coolers can hold ice up to 10 days. Of course that doesn’t mean you can leave your cooler out in the Mojave Dessert in 120 degree temperatures and open it every 30 minutes.



Doesnt seem sketchy at all

Sure, but can you STAND on it? Or will it stop an escaped carnival bear from breaking into your boat and eating your fish? No? That's what I thought.

Man, I picked up one of those Mammoths that were on woot awhile back, everybody I know with a Yeti wants one. Hold ice just as long and half the weight. I've been hoping woot would have them again but no luck yet.

I don't see how there could be a lawsuit about the actual design. Pretty sure the patent on insulated, plastic boxes ran out a long time ago.

This is the first Yeti related topic I've clicked on this board but I know they're common.

Are there any Yeti owners here that have said they're not worth the money. I didn't realize they cost so much until just now.
