Sizing & Models

How fast will my order ship?

Orders usually leave our warehouse within 1–2 business days. Standard U.S. shipping takes 3–5 business days, and we offer expedited options at checkout if you need it sooner.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes! We ship worldwide. International delivery times vary depending on the destination, but most orders arrive within 7–14 business days.

What's your return policy?

If you don't love your Monti cooler, return it within 30 days for a 50% refund — no hassle, no hard feelings.

What if my cooler arrives damaged or defective?

Reach out to our support team and we'll replace it right away. Every Monti product is covered against defects.

How long does Monti keep drinks cold?

Independent testing by Outdoor Life found Monti coolers held ice for up to 55 hours — on par with heavy-duty hard coolers, but at a fraction of the weight.

Is it really leakproof?

Yes. Each cooler uses a seam-welded liner that prevents leaks — even when tipped on its side.

What's the material?

The shell is made of quilted, PFAS-free nylon with reinforced stitching. It's soft, durable, and stylish enough to take anywhere.

Will condensation be a problem?

In humid environments, we recommend ice packs instead of loose ice for best results. That way you get long chill time without excess moisture.

Is it TSA or carry-on approved?

Yes — all Monti coolers fold into their built-in stuff sack and fit easily in carry-ons, backpacks, or totes. No oversized baggage fees here.

How small does it pack down?

The Shasta compresses into a 9" x 9" x 3.5" sack — smaller than a hoodie. The Mayfly packs down even smaller.

Can I fit it under an airplane seat?

Yes. Customers regularly bring Monti coolers on flights — they fit under seats and in overhead bins when packed flat.

Does it add much weight to my luggage?

Not at all. The Shasta weighs only 17 oz (about as much as a water bottle).

Is this good for hiking or camping?

Absolutely. Lightweight design and backpack straps make it perfect for trails, day hikes, or car camping trips.

Can I take it on a boat or to the beach?

Yes. Monti coolers are leak-resistant, sand-friendly, and easy to rinse clean after saltwater use.

Is it useful for parents?

Many parents use Monti coolers for park days, sports practice, or road trips — it keeps snacks and drinks cold without the bulk of a hard cooler.

Can I use it for tailgate or college events?

Yes! The Shasta holds up to 23 cans and keeps them cold all game day.

Does it works for everyday errands?

Definitely. Monti coolers double as grocery bags, lunch totes, or even as an insulated carrier for wine or flowers.

What's the difference between Shasta and Mayfly?

The Shasta (23L) is our largest cooler — it holds up to 23 cans or 5 bottles of wine, perfect for group trips. The Mayfly (14L) is smaller and lighter, ideal for day trips or solo adventures.

What about the Adventure Diaper Bag?

The Adventure Bag is designed for parents on the go. It includes an insulated bottle pouch, smart storage, and stroller hooks — combining Monti's cooling tech with parenting convenience.

How much does each cooler weigh?

Shasta: 17.2 oz. Mayfly: 14.7 oz. Both are lighter than most water bottles.

How do I pick the right size?

If you're traveling with family or groups, go with the Shasta. For solo adventures or carry-on minimalism, the Mayfly is perfect. Parents who want versatility should check out the Adventure Bag.

Can I own more than one?

Many customers do! Shasta for bigger trips, Mayfly for everyday runs, Adventure Bag for family needs.
