Thats a pretty broad brush

I doubt RTIC copied anyone, likely they marketed a cooler that someone in China copied. You can find them all day on alibaba for $40 a piece

Not legal in Texas, cant even run down the beach on them

Be kinda rough on the interstates

Everything is a knock off, aint nothing new under the sun.

I knew what you were talking about, I still prefer my beer in ice.

Everybody does it

I would agree with this, chances are they didnt do any design work, or pay for the mold, or for that part do anything but market a Chinese cooler they stumbled in to. Probably nothing would have ever happened had they kept low key and not advertised as better than a Yeti and went after Yeti. I...

It's a horses for courses kind of thing. After a 100º day of dove hunting or frying fish over a hot fryer after broiling in the sun all day on the water, reaching in a humming cooler will never equal shoving your hand down in a chest full of salted ice and pulling out a beer thats at 31º and...

I doubt RTIC had much of a hand in design, some Chinese rotomolder probably made a knock off and RTIC just saw a window of opportunity to market it.

I think the price of the product is probably considered sub par too.

Nah, no reason to worry, they use Yeti parts. :xxrotflma

Yeti better get busy https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Food-Use-and-Insulated-Type-Rotomolded_60480232890.html?s=p I think the first heavy cooler I ever saw was an Esky out of Australia, that was maybe 10 years before I saw an Yeti.

Might be over stating things a bit

I think they used to value integrity more than they do now. Most I know these days seem to value a 4000 sq ft home with 3 a/c units and a BMW in the garage as much as integrity. But get out in the country and it seems integrity means something, but still it mostly seems integrity is less...

I dont particularly care one way or the other, but I am not real sure about this part of your comment. Having been involved in corporate America quite a few years, I have never found this to be true. Pretty much seen it based on trying to **** somebody out of something. Read any product supply...

The Rifle River is a good bag, I bought one last year. Actually got it on sale for well under $100 so for me it was a real bargain. Big and roomy but not very light, great for car camping, not so much if you are carrying it very far. Also have a a cheap Columbia Elk Meadows 0º bag that while...

I'd worry less about where they come from and more about what fits. I wrecked my feet with a pair of Salomons. Developed a neuroma within a week of buying them. I normally tried to stay with Italian boots, but after the neuroma, I'm in Hoka One One high top Tor Summits and getting ready to pick...

I just spray it in the shower and brush it with a stiff bristle brush while spraying it. Works fine. Ditch the boiled linseed in my opinion and use the Barbour stuff, works better than the Filson stuff (smells better) I also have one of the Outback Trading, they will leave greasy spots on...

Nah, you a little tense, dont stick your finger in your nose when you been diggin.
