When you need something easy to carry, a soft cooler is the answer. Made from flexible, padded materials, these bags are light and often fold up for storage. They usually have comfortable shoulder straps or handles. They are great for a day at the park, a commute to the office, carrying groceries, or a child’s sports practice. While they won’t keep things cold as long as a hard cooler (they’re best for a day or less), they win on convenience. They slip into your car or closet easily, making them the most practical choice for short, active outings.
