The rugged
inflatable cooler
Stow it in your RV compartment, apartment closet, or anywhere space is at a premium. A 58-quart inflatable cooler that goes rigid in 90 seconds, packs flat into a 14.5×27.5×6.5" carry bag, and is sturdy enough to sit on. Built for RVers. At home anywhere.

Hard coolers waste space. Pool toys break. There's a better way.
A 58-quart hard cooler permanently eats up half a closet — even when you're not using it. Cheap inflatables collapse the moment you sit on them. The AirSkirts Cooler is built from double-walled drop-stitch PVC — the same fabric used in performance paddleboards: rigid as a hard cooler when inflated, packs into a 14.5×27.5×6.5" carry bag when it's not.
(13.7 lb full kit)
(vs ~5 cu ft hard cooler)
From bag to ice-cold in under 90 seconds
01
Pull it from the bag
Deflated, the cooler packs down to the size of a small carry bag — fits in an RV closet, a vehicle trunk, or under a truck-bed seat.
02
Inflate to high PSI
The included high-pressure hand pump fills the drop-stitch PVC chambers in under 90 seconds. To deflate later, just unscrew the hose and reverse it — same pump, both directions.
Load ice. Hit the road.
Cold for the cookout, the tailgate, the day trip. The walls are sturdy enough to sit on. When the event's over, deflate it and the whole kit disappears into a carry bag the size of a duffel.
The cooler, in motion
Two minutes of unpacking, inflating, and a closer look at the build.
Eight reasons it beats a hard cooler
The AirSkirts Cooler isn't a pool toy or a soft-sided bag. It's a fundamentally new approach to portable cooling.

A New Concept in Coolers
Patent-pending design — the world's only inflatable hard cooler.
Durable Material
Double-walled drop-stitch PVC — the same fabric as performance SUPs and inflatable kayaks.
Amply Sized
Medium-large 58-quart capacity — same as a 65-qt hard cooler footprint when inflated.
A skirt company, applied to coolers
AirSkirts started in 2019 with one question: why do RVers still wrap their rigs in foam boards every winter? Six years and 5,000+ rigs later, the same engineering — drop-stitch PVC, high-pressure inflation, premium materials — keeps RVs warm from Connecticut to British Columbia.
The AirSkirts Cooler is what happens when you point that expertise at a different problem. Hard coolers waste space. So we made one that doesn't. Same drop-stitch fabric. Same 5-year warranty. Designed in our Old Lyme studio. Patent-pending.
In the field
Built to spec, down to the seam
Every material chosen for a reason — heat-welded and glued for an airtight seal, with food-safe components throughout.

Material
"There isn't anything else quite like it out there. As a travel and road trip cooler, or a backup cooler, the one-of-a-kind Airskirts Inflatable Cooler is a real contender."
"The materials are immensely durable, the construction quality seems high, and the savings in space could be the difference for many in having a cooler or not having one. The uninflated cooler takes up about half the space of the 54-quart Coleman I've had for years."
"I have come to be very impressed with every aspect of AirSkirts' products in terms of materials and workmanship. The caliber of materials and stitching are up to the level you might expect of a stand up paddle board or inflatable kayak."
A hard cooler wins on cold. We win on everything else.
Honest about the trade-off: if you need to keep ice for a week, buy a hard cooler. If you need cold for the cookout, the tailgate, or the day trip — and don't want a 33-pound chest in your garage year-round — this is the cooler.
This isn't a Yeti. The AirSkirts Cooler keeps drinks cold through the day — long enough for the cookout, the tailgate, the trip — but it won't hold ice for a week in a hot truck bed. No inflatable cooler will. If you need expedition-grade cold retention, buy a hard cooler. If you need 58 quarts of cold that disappears into a carry bag when you're done, this is it.
A premium hard cooler permanently takes up half a closet
A 65-quart Yeti-class cooler measures roughly 30.5" × 17.5" × 16" — close to 5 cubic feet — and that footprint never shrinks. In an RV bay, a truck bed, or a garage, it's stealing space 365 days a year, not just when you're using it.
Space Savings
When the trip is over, the AirSkirts Cooler deflates into a 14.5×27.5×6.5" 1680D oxford carry bag — small enough for an RV closet, a vehicle trunk, or under a truck-bed seat. A hard cooler keeps stealing space whether you're using it or not.
vs. The Alternatives
Most "packable" coolers are flimsy soft-sided bags that lose ice in hours. Cheap inflatables can't hold their shape. AirSkirts is the only inflatable cooler built from drop-stitch PVC — rigid as a hard cooler, packable as a duffel.
Built for the Day
This isn't a 5-day camping cooler — buy a Yeti for that. This is the cooler you grab for the cookout, the tailgate, the boat day, the kid's tournament. Then deflate it and the whole kit disappears until next time.
Common questions
The AirSkirts Cooler holds 58 quarts. Inflated, the exterior measures 28" × 16.75" × 16.75" with a usable interior of 24" × 11.5" × 12.5".
Yes — the handles on the cooler let you pick it up, and the walls maintain shape even when fully loaded. If the cooler is very full, we suggest a team lift since it holds a generous 58 quarts.
Stored in its 1680D oxford carry bag, the whole kit measures 14.5" × 27.5" × 6.5". Deflated cooler alone: 24" × 14" × 5". Pump: 22" × 10" × 3" (and can be stored separately to save more space). The cooler itself weighs 9.8 lbs; the entire kit weighs 13.7 lbs.
Under 90 seconds — for both directions — using the included high-pressure hand pump.
A high-pressure ABS plastic hand pump that handles both inflation and deflation is included with every cooler. To switch directions, simply unscrew the hose and attach it to the other side of the pump. The cooler uses a high-capacity (HC) inflate/deflate valve for fast airflow.
The cooler retains air pressure for weeks or months and is unlikely to require routine reinflation. AirSkirts has kept test units inflated for several months at their Connecticut warehouse — indoors and outdoors, across a variety of temperatures — without any change in air pressure.
Honest answer first: this isn't a Yeti. An inflatable cooler with fabric walls will never out-cold a foam-insulated hard cooler — and we don't pretend it does. The AirSkirts Cooler is built for the cookout, the tailgate, the day trip — not the five-day camping expedition. Realistic numbers: up to two days when kept closed and minimally opened, or a full day's worth of cooling under normal active use.
The cooler comes with a removable, food-safe Polyether TPU liner. Just pull out the liner and wash with soap and water. You can also clean the exterior of the cooler with soap and water. Always make sure the cooler is completely dry before packing it away.
In addition to heat welding, the cooler pieces are glued together — and the glue smell can linger after manufacturing. Simply air out your cooler for a few days and the odor will dissipate. Every cooler is tested by being left inflated for several days before shipping.
Yes — the cooler is sturdy enough to hold most adults. Inflated to its working PSI, the drop-stitch fabric goes rigid and the cooler functions as extra seating at a tailgate or campsite. Every AirSkirts product also comes with a 5-year warranty against defects in craftsmanship.
Pack light.
