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 We intentionally forgo the traditional cooler distribution channel that the other brands are tied to because this outdated distribution channel is expensive.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.




In case you were wondering: LINK

yeah, but the value of the sticker is worth the extra $200


These seem to be identical to Yetis and even compare themselves to them, dont see them lasting long for some reason

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.

Not really. Stop hating cause you got suckered for $450 on a more badly designed ice chest
