Columbia PFG Thermal Pack Cooler 22-Can Zipperless HardBody – Navy Blue, ThermaCool Insulation

The Columbia PFG Thermal Pack Cooler is a 22-can zipperless hardbody cooler built with ThermaCool insulation, a removable HardBody liner with SmartShelf, and a rugged, easy-clean exterior for reliable cooling on the go.

Compact yet thoughtfully engineered, this cooler blends quick access with serious thermal performance. It uses Columbia's ThermaCool High-Performance Insulation and an integrated radiant heat barrier to keep ice for up to two days while a leak-proof HardBody liner simplifies cleaning. Its zipperless flip-open lid speeds reach-in access, and the removable SmartShelf organizes fragile foods from heavy drinks or creates one large storage area when you need extra capacity.

How does the zipperless lid make outdoor use easier?

The patented flip-open, zipperless lid lets you grab drinks or snacks without fussing with sliders or snarled zippers, which is handy when your hands are wet or gloved. The wide opening also improves packing efficiency so you can fit cans, bottles, and food more predictably.

• Quick flip-open access for snacks and beverages
• Less chance of zipper jams, salt, or sand interference
• Wide mouth for easier loading and better organization

How well does it keep items cold and dry?

ThermaCool insulation plus a radiant heat barrier reduces heat transfer and helps retain ice for up to two days under typical outdoor conditions. A leak-proof, easy-clean interior lining protects the shell and makes spills simple to rinse away.

• High-performance insulation and radiant barrier technology
• Leak-proof HardBody liner prevents seepage and eases cleanup
• Designed to hold about 22 standard cans without overpacking

What is the SmartShelf and when should I remove it?

The SmartShelf is a removable, rigid divider inside the HardBody liner that keeps heavy, hard items separate from soft foods so sandwiches and salads don’t get crushed. If you need maximum storage space for bulky items or more ice, the shelf lifts out to convert the cooler into one large compartment.

• Separates beverages from fragile foods to prevent crushing
• Removable to create a single large storage cavity
• HardBody construction supports stacked items and resists dents

Will it be comfortable to carry on long outings?

The cooler uses a Backsaver shoulder strap with a padded shoulder pad that centers the load and makes longer carries less fatiguing. The exterior fabric is Slime-Tech, which resists muck and grime so the cooler stays cleaner between washings and trips.

• Adjustable shoulder strap with padded Backsaver design
• Slime-Tech exterior repels gunk and is easy to wipe clean
• Lightweight hardbody design balances durability and portability

Who is this for: The Columbia PFG Thermal Pack Cooler suits day-trippers, anglers, tailgaters, and picnic-goers who want a mid-size cooler that balances quick access, organization, and dependable cooling. It’s ideal if you need a 22-can capacity with a rugged, easy-clean exterior and a versatile interior that protects soft foods from crushing while still offering the option for extra space.
