Green Day wants us to say “Good Riddance” to ordinary coolers and hello to its newest collaboration with Igloo. Now, you can crack open a cold one with the members of the ’90s punk-rock band — well, an Igloo Playmate version of them, that is.
The special-edition design was released on Thursday (Feb. 1), and was inspired by the band’s popular album Dookie, which also celebrated its 30th anniversary the same day. Unlike your basic cooler, the new Green Day version joins the growing collection of music coolers by Igloo, including its Igloo KoolTunes predecessor inspired by Green Day’s hit album Nimrod, which the cooler brand was especially excited over.
“Hot off the release of the Nimrod KoolTunes, our first collab with punk icons Green Day, we’re now launching a Dookie Cooler Collection — on the day of the epic album’s 30th anniversary, and our excitement for it is next level,” said Adrienne Berkes, Igloo’s head of marketing at Dometic Mobile Cooling, in a press release. “Dookie’s wild and unique artwork is perfect for taking over this special-edition Playmate cooler and reusable can. Fans will be out-of-their-minds pumped on these Dookie coolers.”

Green Day ‘Nimrod’ KoolTunes
What differentiates a KoolTunes version from any other cooler? The main design component is its built-in Bluetooth speakers that’ll let you blast “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “American Idiot” and more of your favorite Green Day songs without having to also carry portable speakers. Plus, one single charge can play up to 10 hours of music, which means you won’t have to hunt for an outlet during your party or beach day.
Beyond the Green Day Nimrod cooler’s ability to play music, the hard material features a fade-resistant UV coating that’s also water- and dust-proof to keep it looking fresh and pristine year-round. You can also fill the interior up with up to 26 cans thanks to its 14-quart size. When you go to grab a drink or snack, the lid can swivel open on either side for easier access.
One side features two low-profile 5-watt speakers while the other side features a control panel with buttons including LED status indicator, a charging port and power, Bluetooth pairing and volume buttons. Don’t worry about digging for a charger either, the KoolTunes cooler comes with its own 3-foot cord that you can also take with you on the go.
