YETI Coolers
V Series Stainless Steel Cooler
Stainless steel
YETI's flagship hard cooler in kitchen-grade stainless steel with vacuum-insulated panels on every side — the same physics as a steel thermos, scaled up to 55 quarts. The plastic-free-est serious cooler on the market.
Good to know: Latches, gasket, and feet are rubber/polymer and the insulation core is sealed foam — but the shell and structure are steel. Also carried by REI.
What it’s made of
Stainless steel body, vacuum insulated panels. Chosen for what it’s made of, not what it’s wrapped in.
- Stainless steel
- Food-grade and near-indestructible. Won't shed microplastics.
