Igloo’s Latest Hello Kitty Coolers Almost Make Day Drinking Cute

Published

Much attention has been paid to the mental toll of quarantining over the last few months, but the lack of traditional large gatherings that we come to look forward to every summer doesn’t preclude one from actually going outside, albeit just with household members. The beach might be inaccessible, or inadvisable, but that doesn’t mean a backyard or patio picnic can’t be fun. And rather than having to get up for a White Claw and go back inside, why not have a cooler handy outside as you while away the hours in a kiddie pool since your usual swimming hole of choice is likely closed until who knows when?

That lazy pragmatism for socially distant “outings” might be why Igloo is still making their signature Playmate coolers, and the latest collection is a collaboration with kawaii factory Sanrio, known for the iconic Hello Kitty. The collection includes Igloo’s 7-quart Playmate Pal and four-quart Playmate Mini.
