Hydro Flask's redesigned Carryout Cooler Collection is now available nationwide
Seven sizes, three formats, seven colors, and a lifetime warranty on all of them
Hydro Flask has just brought its redesigned Carryout Cooler Collection to stock nationwide, and it's a meaningful expansion for a brand that's long been associated with insulated bottles and drinkware rather than carry-forward cooling.
The collection spans three formats — a structured soft cooler, an insulated tote, and a backpack — with seven size options in total and seven colorways across the range. Prices run from $79.95 to $149.95, and everything is backed by Hydro Flask's category-leading Lifetime Warranty.

What's in the collection
Carryout Soft Cooler ($89.95–$129.95)
Available in 10L, 15L, and 30L. The compression-molded design is shaped to sit against the body for stability on the move, and the large hinge-top clamshell lid opens wide for easy access — useful when you're rummaging for something specific without having to unload everything first.
Carryout Cooler Tote ($79.95–$119.95)
Available in 10L, 20L, and 30L. A high-performance top zipper handles secure closure, and zippered front pockets give you quick-reach access to smaller essentials without opening the main compartment. The tote format is the most versatile of the three — equally at home at a tailgate, a beach day, or a day hike with a bigger group.
Carryout Cooler Backpack 22L ($149.95)
The backpack uses the same hinge-top clamshell lid as the soft cooler, paired with an ergonomic shaped body and a compression system to distribute the load.
For trail days or longer carries, having your hands free while keeping your food and drinks cold is a real practical upgrade over a shoulder-carry tote.
What they share
All three formats share a set of features worth calling out.
The insulation is optimized to be lightweight and efficient, maintaining all-day cold when used with an ice pack.
Interior liners are welded for leakproofness, BPA-free, and easy to wipe down, which matters more than people tend to think after a few trips.
Carry comfort has been a focus throughout: the FlexClip Strap System lets you customize or remove the straps depending on how you're using the cooler that day.
And all materials carry bluesign PRODUCT designations alongside recycled content, which fits Hydro Flask's wider sustainability positioning.
A quick Find Your Cooler shopping tool on HydroFlask.com helps you narrow down the right size and format for your intended use, which is a sensible addition given how broad the range is.
Why it's worth paying attention to
Hydro Flask has spent years building a reputation for insulated quality in the bottle and drinkware space (we've been fans of their bottles for a long time) and this collection applies the same thinking to soft cooling.
If you've been using a budget soft cooler that sweats through by midday or has a liner that's impossible to clean, the step up to something like this is more noticeable than it sounds on paper.
The Carryout Cooler Collection is available now at hydroflask.com.
