Bought this one three years ago. Only problem it gives me is the zippers getting stuck once in a while. I use it everyday.

Same pack I've been running.
The zippers don't stick if I'm not doing stupid shit and forcing them. It's been really solid for me.

Got a new thermos a couple weeks back.

The two Stanley's I had a couple years ago didn't last more than a couple weeks at Fort Irwin. Been looking for something with better quality for a while.

Lol, I thought you got a camelback brand bag. I should have noticed they were the same bag.

Because I can literally go in the woods any day in my job, my daily carry pack is pretty well outfitted. I'm packing a stainless steel cup in the bottom of one pocket and I'm looking for a wide mouth stainless steel bottle to slip inside it. So I can cook if I need to. The need has arised in the past. I can't seem to find a wide mouth stainless steel UNINSULATED water bottle.
:evil:

For tumblers it doesn't matter because yetti and RTIC are similarly priced but for ice chests they are both exactly the same thing and RTIC is half the price.

I use my RTIC tumbler daily. If it's not keeping water cool or coffee hot, I'm cooking noodles in it or cutting my beer down with water and limes.

No, mine's a Camelbak. But it's the same bag. Camelbak's design was copied by a lot of manufacturers.

My kids bought me a Yeti chest a couple years ago, they are incredible. Worth the bucks.

RTIC is exactly the same thing and half the price. You have to find them online and take my word for it. Or at least the pawn shop owner I struck up a conversion with about them. I just have their tumbler and it's identical.

Sounds about right.
Typical deal. Someone comes out with a superior product, gets a superior price, then some one else produces they same thing for a better price.
