Gear You Can Trust

Cordova, Alaska is a small town inaccessible by road, where the Copper River Delta meets Prince William Sound, hard against the Chugach Mountains. It is a place where life is tied to nature, and particularly to fishing. This place, its spirit and determination, the importance of self-reliance and surviving in grueling environments is what our products are meant to embody.

Anatomy of a Cordova Cooler

Patented Lid Lock™

Top Loader Latches™

Anti-Slip Goat Feet™

Anodized Aluminum Handles

Ecofoam® Insulated

Certified Bear Resistant

  • Patented Lid Lock™

    Nobody wants a heavy lid to smack down on fingers when reaching into a cooler. The Lid Lock™ system keeps the lid up and locked in place at 70° and 90° for as long as you need it to.

  • Top Loader Latches™

    When prepping for travel, every inch of space counts. We use Top Loader Latches™ so you can pack tight and access the cooler without moving gear.

  • Anti-Slip Goat Feet™

    The Anti-Slip Goat Feet™ pads keep your contents rock-steady on a variety of surfaces. They also prevent the cooler from thermal conduction (heating up) when sitting on hot surfaces. All in the name of maximizing ice retention.

  • Anodized Aluminum Handles

    Our Anodized Aluminum Handles are bolted together making them tough as nails. They lock into place when carrying to help provide the perfect grip. No swinging, no binding, no pinched fingies.

  • Ecofoam® Insulated

    The rugged rotomold construction and environmentally friendly Ecofoam® insulation offer maximum ice retention. When primed (pre-cooled), you can rest assured you’ll have ice throughout an entire weekend adventure.

  • Certified Bear Resistant

    Keep the bears away from your cold picnic basket with the Bear-Resistant lock feature. The Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee has independently certified our coolers as “Bear Resistant” when bear locks are installed.
