Over the years I have been asked to make coolers with Lamilite since it insulates holding heat in while keeping cold out. However, Lamilite will keep cold in a confined area equally efficient as it keeps it out. But I have been reluctant to make any since they would also need a liner that was made from a waterproof film to contain water as ice placed in the container would melt.
The shell fabric is sturdy 600 denier polyester that is water proof coated (the same fabric we use for our ground pads) and the insulation is our L-12 Lamilite which is what we use for insulation in our Antarctic parka.
Each of the two components has a draw cord closure and there are two inch web straps to carry it.
The guarantee is if you do not lose it you will use it the rest of your life.
Size: 15 inches in diameter and 15 inches high.

Initially the wife wished the sack was tote shaped (rectangular/square), so it’ll fit better in our vehicle. She also had concerns that the dogs might be able to get into the sack. After two months of daily usage the wife realized that the sack morphed into any shape and was able to fit into our vehicle nicely. And the dogs never were able to get into the sack. The Heavy-Duty Brass Grommet that holds the draw cord closure is coming off loose, but we are still able to close the sack with no problems.
I did test the sack for waterproofness by filling it with water, and after a while it did leak. Not a big concern for us because we had an ice chest with us, and we were going use the sack as our vehicle snack sack. I did slip in a folded heavy duty garbage bag at the bottom of the sack. Just in case we needed to use it as an improvised ice chest. Overall very happy with the sack. It came in handy when we needed to transport our food from vehicle to hotel, to beach, to wherever…
Where we were traveling ice was not easily accessible, so our $250 ice chest became dead weight to us. Besides our grommet coming off loose the other concern we had was that our crackers tended to disintegrate with all the movement… lol
