Is That a Thirty Rack in Your Bag, Or are You Just Happy to See Me?

File under, "I'm kind of surprised this didn't already exist." Local messenger bag outfit Timbuk2 now offers a "Dolores Chiller," a bag that doubles as an insulated beer cooler complete with bottle opener and named for the park where you can't throw a rock without hitting a dude on a fixie in candy-colored poor-man's Ray-Bans.

May we also suggest the Golden Gate Chiller (replete with hidden pockets for weed) that opens into a pup tent for those inevitable park overnights? Or maybe the Bernal Chiller, with a built in baby papoose and plastic bag dispensary for spiriting away dog waste?

Any other suggestions for city parks that need their own bag named after them?

Wow. Amazing how many hipster cliches they managed to pack into that image. But at $110 per, that's one hella expensive cooler - the trendy Mission kids'll have to call Mom and Dad for an advance on their allowance for this. Or they could just, y'know, go to Goodwill and buy a used soft-sided cooler for less than $5.

On the other hand, the colors are all wrong: instead of un-ironic red, white, and blue, shouldn't that bag be made in electroclashing neon pink, latte brown, and organic-avocado green?

...but any waterproof bag can double as a cooler, so long as you add ice & beer. And hey- the name is still better than Patagonia's messenger bag name, complete with Copyright... ugh.
