"Party Bucket" Is the Beer-Schlepping Toolbelt Every Bucket Needs

The standard five-gallon plastic bucket is an icon of American industry.

For about $3.50, you’re looking at the durable, all-purpose vessel that every man will at some point have to invest in to get a job done — whether it’s painting the house, weeding the yard or knocking off a case of cold ones over the course of a long summer day.

Should you choose Option C (Pro tip: Choose Option C), you’re also gonna need the Party Bucket, an insulated sleeve from Dakine that turns five-gallon plastic buckets into ample, easily portable coolers in about two seconds flat.

Included: an eight-koozie holster, wine bottle holder, bottle opener and two pockets: one for your snacks, one for your drinking tools.

Not included: sunshine, five friends and a beach, golf course or campsite.

But we have a feeling those things will find you once you load her up.
