Hopper Flip
There are some adventures where we just want to grab our stuff and go. That’s where the Hopper comes in. It’s the first 100% leakproof portable cooler. We’ve engineered it the way we do everything – to keep ice for days and be tough as nails. So don’t call it a soft cooler – it’s anything but. The Hopper is loaded with features you won’t find on any other cooler and built to go the extra mile, whether that’s down a wild river in a kayak or on a floatplane trip to a remote salmon stream.
DryHide Shell: the Flip’s high-density fabric is waterproof and resistant to mildew, punctures, and abrasion. The liner is made from a FDA approved food-grade material.
ColdCell Insulation: closed-cell foam offers far superior cold-holding to ordinary soft coolers.
HydroLok Zipper: borrowed from survival suits and hazmat protective gear to make the ultimate waterproof, airtight closure.
Tie-Down Points: D-ring tie-down points give you multiple ways to secure the Hopper.
HitchPoint Grid: easily attach pretty much anything to your Hopper Flip. Bottle openers, carabiners, or accessories like the YETI Sidekick Gear Case.
Double-Stitched Carry Options: with a detachable shoulder strap and reinforced handles, you’ve got options on how to make the load easier to carry.

Pretty awesome cooler… I have no idea why some people arenât impressed by what this cooler can do.I put a relatively thin layer of ice over six beers and played in a golf tournament a few weeks ago on a 95 degree day. This cooler sat in the back in direct sunlight for about 75% of our time on the course.Got to the last tee and went for my last beer. There was still ice in the cooler and the beer was freezing cold. Not much else to say.
Not worth the price! I was a bit shocked following all the fan fare. There was no significant difference to my Igloo or Coleman, other than costing 10 times more! I ran a test on the 3, leaving them in a hot car all day. I witnessed no significant difference. I then went and purchased âyeti iceâ thinking it might change things. That turned out to be just the same as other packaged ice products. Big disappointment financially and a bummer as my hope was to upgrade my cooler situation. Save your money……completely…
Zipper Failed (Under Warranty) Update: I contacted Yeti and a few days later they contacted me and sent me a return label. The reason I only bumped it up to 3 stars is that I have to return the bad cooler before they will ship a replacement. And because this shouldn’t have happened in the first place.Original Review: I have been using the cooler 5 days a week for approximately 8 months. As you can see in the photos the zipper failed today.Does it keep things cold, heck yes it does.But…
