Description
New 2017 high performance backpack cooler the new Engel backpack cooler features a rugged, tear-resistant 500-denier polyester diamond rip stop outer shell with a waterproof TPE coating for easy cleaning. On the inside, there's a radiant barrier liner of reflective foil, in addition to a 1-inch thick layer of closed-cell foam insulation - another exclusive Engel feature you won't find on other bags. While the insulation effectively minimizes heat transfer to maintain cold inner temperatures, the radiant barrier liner reflects the sun's long-wave heat radiation to further enhance the backpack cooler's cold-keeping capabilities. Under typical conditions, the backpack cooler will hold ice for up to three days. After years of being a professional wildlife artist as well as an avid hunter, my job has been to study the specific patterns and textures of animals in nature and to mimic them in my art. Years of this study LED me to develop Prym1 camo, which uses the colors and textures of nature with the organic patterns of wildlife to create a camo with the effectiveness of a predator. - Stacie Walker Prym1 camo founder.2.
