>> Yeti was cool when it was a startup based in Austin and manufactured in the states.
Now their double walled coolers are made in China....read the label.
Igloo is made here in TX; Igloo Rd. off of the Katy Fwy. past Pederson....I10 W. I will buy theirs hands down to support our local market and Texas jobs.
Yeti doesn't do that anymore.
@TXtransplant: The Ozark Trail tumblers are also made in China, possibly in the same factory as the YETI tumblers, as well as several other brands (RTIC, Magnum Steel, The Vault, Zero, etc). They all seem to be identical (or nearly so), so I suspect the Igloo Eskimo tumblers are also made in China.
@Retired_Engineer:
I would imagine they all are at this point.....and likely from the same factory as you noted
Igloo here at least has a blow mold operation making coolers and employing Texans.
For me that's good enough. I am tired of sending my hard earned money overseas
