Canyon Coolers' most popular cooler was named the Best Adventure Cooler of 2024 by the New York Times. Canyon took the tried-and-true classic Outfitter and made it better in all the right places. The latches are even more robust, using a premium sun-resistant polymer for a more luxurious cam action, suitable for small hands, gloves, or arthritic fingers. The super-popular flush square wall design packs out easier than ever. The premium soft-touch seal still insulates far better than the average wiper blades that others use. The new dual-action drain makes leaks a thing of the past—you can fast-dump the water with the large outer plug or use the inner plug to directly fit it to a garden hose for more permanent mounting.

This is the classic size for a small family to go on big adventures. At just 26 pounds, it’s manageable but still offers the superior ice retention of a true rotomolded cooler.

The Outfitter 55 is a mid-sized cooler that can still be lifted by most people, and it’s backed by Canyon Coolers' legendary Sh!t Happens Lifetime Warranty. Engineered in Arizona for the hottest places on earth. You can even add a divider that turns into a table or an in-cooler cutting board (divider table not included).
