"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""This is the cooler I grab for day trips or quick side missions. It’s small enough to tuck behind a seat but still fits a bunch of drinks or a few bottles. The zipper-free lid is a game changer—super easy to open with one hand, even when I’m carrying gear.""For quick adventures, roadside hangs, or packing light, the Recon ZL 12L Cooler is our go-to. Compact yet capable, it slides easily into a backseat or footwell and keeps up to 19 cans ice-cold with advanced FrostCore™ insulation. It’s even tall enough for four wine bottles, making it the perfect size for road trips and day escapes. The rugged, recycled nylon shell and welded liner make this cooler durable and leakproof, while the reinforced base adds stability whether it’s stacked on another Recon or sitting solo. Instead of wrestling with zippers, the dual-hinge latches open from either side—or pop the lid off entirely—for smooth, one-handed access. Finished with MOLLE loops for accessories, D-rings for tie-downs, and a padded shoulder strap for carry comfort, it’s built for wherever the road leads."
