Earlier this year YETI announced that it'd be releasing a new version of its popular Hopper design—this time in a very outdoorsy looking color that the company is calling "Field Tan." The Hopper line has been available since 2014 and is known for its durable, tough-as-nails soft-sided coolers.

YETI had its new Hopper on display at the 145th NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits this weekend in Louisville. You can get a closer look at it in the video embedded above. For further information, check out our 2016 cooler roundup.
