Custom LeatherCraft 1540 15-Inch BigMouth Cooler Bag

We've owned this bag for a couple of years now. Wanted something larger for the family to use for daytime trips were you would want something but don't need or want to haul a large cooler (and it saves money by not buying more expensive drinks on the road). Because of the height of the bag it holds both water/juice bottles and soda cans with ease. We use one of the six-pack cooler packs to keep drinks cool. It'll store 10 bottles/cans easily and twelve-to-fourteen by laying some on their sides/on top. This works great for us (family of 4) and allows us to bring two drinks each and have room for extra snacks stacked inside and using the outside pockets. The outside pockets could be a bit larger but they work fine otherwise.

I often work long days and need to pack up breakfast, lunch and dinner in an easy-carry tote with snacks. This is perfect for that, or to carry refreshments to a party. The insulation keeps beverages cold or hot as needed longer than a non-insulated tote and it's lightweight.

It's also very nice that it has an opening on the top so you can reach in and grab a drink without unzipping the whole thing.

Why not 5 stars? You will need to use a coldpack for your cold items in order to keep it cold long-term or to keep your bevs at optimum temperature--you can't use ice in this. Because of the opening of the liner at the zipper and the stitching, ice melting caused leakage. The manufacturer says it's not waterproof and, granted, it doesn't state that it is...however I do have another bag in the same price range that has a heavy duty plastic liner that allows it to be waterproof as well...so, since this technology is out there, I do wish this bag allowed for me to...Read more

Really good product - purchased to fit between seats where a hard side cooler doesn't work. Kept drinks cold for 14 hour car trip. We used blue ice bags so can't confirm it won't leak if you use real ice, but very nice job with the bags. Also easier to carry than a regular cooler due to the shoulder strap. Product description doesn't mention it, but there is a velcro hatch on the top so you can reach in without unzipping.
