The Recon Soft‑Side Cooler, shown in Lichen, is a compact, stackable soft‑side cooler engineered for real use.
 
Grab‑and‑go cooling with pro‑grade performance — FrostCore™ insulation keeps contents cold, a zipper‑free lid opens one‑handed, and rugged welded construction makes this cooler leak‑resistant and road‑ready.
 
At home on day trips, tailgates, or tucked into a vehicle, it combines field‑ready materials with thoughtful details: a dual‑hinge, zipper‑free lid for fast access; 25 mm FrostCore™ insulation for long‑lasting cold; and a welded, leak-proof interior that stands up to rough handling. Designed to work solo or as part of a modular system — pair it with a hardside Recon for basecamp or the 10L Recon ZL for quick side trips.
 
 
Vehicle-Optimized Recon System
Made to nest together, easily fits in tailgates and seat wells, Recon ZL is optimized for vehicle packability without sacrificing capacity.
 
Space-Efficient Design
Sized for side trips and as a compact component of your stackable multi-unit Recon system, the 10L capacity holds 19 cans and is tall enough for 4 wine bottles.
 
Stackable & Packable
Stackable design sits securely on your Recon Hardside cooler – reinforced bottom for no slip or slide – to give you more volume with a smaller cargo footprint.
 
FrostCore™ Insulation
Advanced 25mm insulation that balances lasting cold with light weight and minimal bulk.
 
Dual Hinge Lid Latches
Durable, secure, and simple to operate, the dual hinge latches let you open the lid from either side for easy access with a single hand – no struggling with awkward, fragile zippers.
 
Ergonomic Where It Counts
Removable magnetic handles and an adjustable padded shoulder strap make it comfortable to carry.
