The Naked Cooler
When I think of a Naked Cooler I imagine a big rectangular box that's really cold and full of naked people. Kind of like a sauna. But cold. And with the exception of myself, containing ladies only. But since that project is not currently available for me to back on Kickstarter, I guess this transparent ice chest version of a Naked Cooler will suffice.
Some of you might remember that last summer's golden child of crowdfunding was also a cooler. And while the Naked Cooler isn't packed with a bunch of gadgets and battery-powered tech, and doesn't glorify itself with superlatives like "The Coolest", it does hope to earn at least $200,000 worth of support from the public for its sleek design and 360-degree content visibility. According to Naked makers Adam Patterson and business partner Scott Hartnell, this cooler is the "durable and classy alternative to every busted and broken cooler you�ve had living in your garage since 1997."
Naked Cooler features include:
- Windows. Four clear panes keep drinks visible from the outside, without compromising the cooler's ability to keep them cold on the inside. No more playing Go-Fish in the ice until your hand goes so numb you can no longer use it to hold the Bud Light Light you were finally able to dig out.
- Easy Transport courtesy of a telescopic handle and wheels, easy cleaning with a hinged lid and bottom drain.
- Simple accessories, such as a removable 14" x 10" ice bin and cup holder large enough for 18 drinks.
- 2" thick internal foam insulation to keep ice frozen for a full 24 hours.
- With the ice bin/cup holder removed, the Naked Cooler has 50 quarts of space to hold 50+ cans of brew.
If you want to get Naked, pledge for your Naked Cooler--completely naked, if you like--online through Kickstarter by June 30, 2015. You'll enjoy a $70 to $30 discount (depending on how early you back the project), but will have to wait almost a year to get the goods. Anticipated delivery to backers is March 2016. Coolers are available with Pink, Blue, Orange, or Green accents.
