72-hour chiller that's totally watertight
The problem with most cool bags is that if you use loose ice rather than ice packs, your bag is soon sitting in a pool of cold water. Well, not this one. It's completely waterproof, right down to the zips, and it uses the same super-strong welded seams as Red's watertight paddle boarding bags. And it's not just water that's firmly locked inside – the ThermaLock insulation technology means that the ice inside will stay frozen for up to 72 hours. Sturdy and free-standing, it's got a roomy 18 litres of space inside, plus two extra side pockets and external attachments. You've got a padded shoulder strap, woven tote straps and side grab handles, plus a clever luggage tensioning system to attach the cool bag to cars, boards and boats. Now all you need is some beers to fill it with...

Red Paddle Co boards come with a five-year warranty as standard – and if you think that sounds generous, it's because virtually no-one needs to use it. Their paddleboards are so well built that they've literally driven a 22-tonne digger over one without breaking it, and warranty rates stand at a staggeringly low 0.5%.
The same goes for the rest of their gear too – from beautifully made waterproof backpacks with super-strong welding, to hybrid changing robe/parkas that'll take you from the beach to the high arctic and everywhere in-between. This stuff isn't cobbled together overseas by the lowest bidder – it's designed and purpose-built in Red's own Devon facility, drawing on more than 15 years of experience and an uncompromising attitude to quality.
We've had a good old nose around their Totnes HQ, and what we really love about Red is the way their kit is engineered to be portable and versatile for multi-activity adventures. Sure, you can just chuck their compact inflatable boards in the back of the car and have a splash about at the beach, but they’re so packable that you can also stick them in a backpack and pony them up to remote mountain lakes, or spend a day paddling downriver and get the train home. Your imagination really is the limit.
This is seriously well-engineered gear that's built to perform and to last, and we're right on board with that.
