IceMule Cooler

How the IceMule™ was born

The IceMule™ resulted from a simple need:  to carry a real cooler - one that carries real ice - comfortably and easily.  The idea for the IceMule™ was born on a hot, spring day several years ago when the cooler's inventors were taking a day-long hike in Virginia.

Knowing they wouldn’t be able to stop for cold drinks along the banks of James River, and unable to find a good waterproof portable cooler, they created a make-shift cooler out of a day pack and double lined it with plastic trash bags.  Inside, they filled it with cold drinks and sandwiches.

This seemed like a good idea until the trash bags broke and ice water flooded the hiker's back.  A wet hiker, warm drinks and soggy food started the wheels of innovation turning.  So when the hikers returned home, they set out to design their own soft-sided, waterproof and portable cooler that could keep ice intact and be comfortable enough to carry on both long hikes and relaxing days at the beach. 

Several months, dozens of prototypes and many days of field testing later, the ultimate cooler was born.  Now, the IceMule ™ is here to help keep all of your adventures cool!
