Win for YETI.
AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- YETI®, the leading premium cooler and drinkware brand, is pleased to announce that a binding settlement has been reached in the United States District Court lawsuits brought against RTIC Coolers and brothers John and Jim Jacobsen.
RTIC Coolers and the Jacobsens are required to make a financial payment to YETI; to cease sales of all products subject to the lawsuit – this includes hard-sided coolers, soft-sided coolers and drinkware; and to redesign all products in question.
YETI CEO Matt Reintjes stated, "We are extremely pleased with the results we have achieved. We will continue to defend our innovation and intellectual property. This is a true win."
Further details will be shared as they become available. YETI is not available for further comment on this topic at this point.

I seem to remember SGH as being a major advocate of RTIC and critic of the vanilla design of Yeti. But hey, we assemble reality in our own image, so it seems.dmchicago said:

Yeti claims they won. RTIC claims they won.minniemoh said:30 day warranty now... guess that's about how long they are planning to be around.
Regardless, RTIC says that they will be around and will be releasing new products this Spring.“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” ― Philip K. Diçk -

Well i got an rtic a year or so ago so im good....

Not that @SGH needs my input or help but, he has always claimed that his Yeti 50 is the best cooler he owns. The RTIC coolers have done well for me. My 45 has been on 20 float trips, with 1 flip, and is fantastic. Is Rtic going to come back on Yeti for ripping off the better design of a soft side cooler?

The original rotomold cooler was made by Pelican and used for live organ transportation. Yeti copied it in larger form and sold it to the masses.Aledo, Texas
