Custom Stubby Cooler FAQs

Both work. Send us a print-ready file and we’ll proof and produce it. Don’t have artwork? Send a photo of the couple, the dog, or the logo and we’ll draw or set it up for you. Custom illustrated portraits are an actual hand-drawn piece — not clip art, not a filter.

PNG, JPG or PDF at 300dpi — preferred for clarity of image. Not sure what you’ve got? Send it anyway and we’ll check it before anything prints.

A vector logo is ideal — it stays razor sharp at any size. No vector? A high-resolution PNG, JPG or PDF at 300dpi works well too. The cleaner the file you send, the cleaner it prints.

If your design is meant to sit directly on the cooler colour, send a PNG with a transparent background so there’s no white box around it. Not sure? Send what you have — we set the layout up and show you exactly how it’ll look on your proof before anything prints.

Yes — fluorescent colours are available on request. We print with Fluorescent Pink/Magenta and Fluorescent Yellow alongside standard cyan and black, for designs that need to pop. You’ll see the colour on your proof before anything prints.

Always. A digital proof goes to you for written sign-off before anything prints. One round of revisions is included.

Send what you have and we’ll have a look. You’ll see a digital proof before anything is printed, so you’ll know exactly how the photo will appear. An extra fee may apply.

Neoprene is the wetsuit material — closed-cell, flexible, insulating, and water-resistant. Foam coolers (the cheap promotional ones) are open-cell, lose their structure quickly, and don’t insulate nearly as well. Neoprene also takes a sublimation print, which is why the artwork lasts. If a stubby cooler costs $2, it’s foam. If it lasts a decade, it’s neoprene.

We cover every common Australian drink size — standard 375 ml cans and stubbies, slim cans (250–330 ml seltzers and pre-mixed drinks), longneck bottles, and skinny European-style bottles. Tell us what you’re cooling and we’ll match the stubby cooler to it.

A non-slip shark-skin base — grips wet tables and boat decks instead of sliding.

An optional stitched edge finish along the top and bottom rim. Customers mention it in reviews — ask about it when you order.

Cold hand wash, lay flat to dry. Don’t put neoprene in the dryer or iron the printed face. Treated this way they last years — we’ve got customers using stubby coolers we made eight summers ago that still look the same.

Yes — every state and territory, including regional and remote. Most metro deliveries arrive in 2–4 business days after dispatch. We’ll send tracking the moment your order leaves the workshop on the Gold Coast.

Yes — quotes include design, print and shipping. What we quote is what you pay.

Every stubby cooler is made to order and personalised, so we can’t accept change-of-mind returns once production has started. If something arrives damaged or there’s a fault on our end, we’ll replace it — no argument. The proof step earlier in the process is there to catch design issues before anything is printed.

Yes. We handle branded stubby coolers for breweries, sporting clubs, weddings, conferences, and trade shows. Volume pricing kicks in at 50 units. Send quantity, deadline, and a rough idea of artwork — we’ll come back with a quote.

Proofs are checked against your brand guidelines before print, and nothing prints until your proof is approved in writing.
