Pelican Elite Coolers: Tougher coolers designed for adventure

This is my first go with Pelican Coolers, so this is my first impression of the product and brand. The two coolers I received were the 30qt Elite Cooler and larger 70qt Elite Cooler. You can tell as soon as you lift them out of the box, you’ve got a quality cooler. Just the heft […]

Heavy Cover US GI style titanium canteen mess kit

Heavy Cover US GI style titanium canteen mess kit

Anyone who spent more than a day in the military has had the pleasure of dealing with the issued GI bottle and the awfully bad tasting water that comes with it.
