Most stubby holders handle one or the other. This takes cans and bottles up to the usual 375ml, and converts to a tumbler when someone wants a proper drink instead.
That flexibility is why it ends up being the one that gets used, even by someone who already owns three perfectly good stubby holders in a drawer.
Insulation is the whole job, and this does it well enough that a drink is still cold at the end rather than being warm halfway through on a hot afternoon.
The built-in bottle opener is the detail that earns it a permanent spot in an esky. There’s always one at the barbecue and it’s always somewhere else, and this solves that permanently.
Being stainless rather than foam, it also survives being thrown in a camping tub or the back of a ute, which foam holders categorically do not.
Stainless also means no sweating on the outside, so it won't leave a puddle on a table or slip out of a wet hand, which is where foam holders tend to let you down on a hot day.
It suits dads, tradies and anyone who spends a weekend outdoors, and it’s equally at home at a backyard barbecue, a fishing trip or a smoko break.
You’re buying something that gets used every weekend rather than once, which is unusual for a gift in this category.
Check the can size they usually drink before you commit. It handles the standard 375ml, but if they’re a tallboy drinker that’s worth knowing now rather than after they’ve unwrapped it.
