    Agree @lit .. But if it's the same quality ... Why not pay half ?

    It's the exact quality. It's the exact same cup. Neither Yeti nor RTIC makes the cups. They purchase blanks from the same manufacturer.

    I haven't been reading the other forum much. For the people who haven't gotten them... What's the word?

    Why not splurge the extra $20 bucks and use it to get drunk over the holidays?

    The Yetis are on back-order as well. I think someone said they are selling on ebay at a marked up price.

    They are everywhere around Atlanta. I saw literally hundreds of them last weekend. Nobody must want to shop at brick and mortar stores anymore.

    Where did you see them @doubleegger ?


    LBGE, AR.  Lives in N.E. ATL
  • Pre-ordered mine on July 14th and paid for it in full on August 19th. Tan in color and continue to find that my order is being further delayed without communication from RTIC client services. I have personally reached out to be in the know. 

    Communication is key while experiencing back-order concerns and RTIC has been non-existent IMO.

    Here's my new ship date.

    Here in NOVA I've seen YETIs at REI, ACE and DICKs.

    I'd jump on this if they came through with the cooler as promised, so far my delivery date has pushed back a month and a half. I did order tan, which appears to be part of the problem. With these they would have no excuse I guess since there is no options available.

    Several  Ace Hardware stores, High Country outfitters and Adventure Outdoors. I think Mori luggage had them as well. They had some stainless Yeti products but don't remember if they had the 30oz

    Not anytime soon. Maybe never. This is part of how they keep cost low. Cut out the middle man.

    Soft side coolers are on the horizon my friend. 
    @SGH FWIW I hope they don't copy the Yeti soft cooler.  It is worthless.  I mean, it is a nice for a $300 padded tote bag, but it doesn't keep stuff cold very long :smiley:.


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Not to worry my friend. The soft side coolers from RTIC will be superior to the Yetis. Just like they built a better hard cooler, they are going to follow suite with  superior soft sides as well. RTIC is doing their very best to crush Yeti in the quality and performance department. So far they have succeeded in every way that matters from what I see. The soft sides will be Yeti killers as well.
