AO Review: Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case in Wetlands Brown

When it comes to the adventures that we participate in – whether it is hunting, camping, hiking, or all of the above – when we are in the Great Outdoors we need gear that is just as rugged as we are. This extends from our clothing to our vehicles and even the totes that we own to tote around all of our gear. One such rough-and-tumble tote is the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case. Yeti has taken all of the secret sauce from their insulated coolers and applied it a cargo box so we can protect and store gear that doesn’t need to be chilled. To make the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case even more special, they offer it in seasonal colorways so you get a limited edition curb appeal with the practicality of your Gear Case. So, today we are going to take a look at the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case in its fall seasonal colorway of Wetlands Brown. Let’s dive in!

What Does Yeti Have to Say about the Loadout GoBox in Wetlands Brown?

The GoBox is an easy creation and extension from Yeti’s cooler line, but as we continually have mentioned, they didn’t stop at “good enough.” They this its own beast and it can be tailored to whatever your endeavors or exploits might be. Yeti shares their thoughts below in a press release statement, and the famous John Dudley shares how he turned his into a field archery repair kit in the below YouTube video:

As the Goldilocks of our cargo family, Loadout® GoBox 30 Gear Case is sized for every river, hunting, or overlanding trip. We’ve seen it used as a camp pantry, camera equipment case, first-aid kit, and tackle box – but that’s just scratching the surface. Dustproof, waterproof, and virtually indestructible, it’s built to be packed up, hauled out, and hold up to whatever you throw at it.

Field Use – Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case in Wetlands Brown

So, how did the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case perform out in the field?… To review this gear case, I looked around my unkept garage and thought to myself, “What is something that definitely needs cleaning up that I could deploy this case to solve?” The answer was my collection of Milwaukee tools. I have batteries, chargers, accessories, and lots of tools which are simply strewn about on a bench haphazardly. So, this box seemed like the perfect solution.

I could use the removable caddy for more common or small items that I would be using most frequently. Plus, it ensures that they don’t get lost in the bottom.

Once that area is filled up there is also the pack attic where I can hide items that would otherwise get lost.

For this spot, I opted to have a handheld tool placed in there so it would remain easily accessible once I filled the rest of the container with Milwaukee goodies.

Then, I took my tailgate full of tools and started to fill up the bottom of the gear case. I strategically placed the items in there and I was able to hide everything in the box minus the chargers. Those were better suited on my work bench where they can be plugged in.

I used the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case for several months throughout the fall and now a Minnesota winter. The case has never chipped, cracked, or lost its integrity in any way and it has survived temps for the mid-70s down to negative temps that we have already experienced this winter in Minnesota. It has proven itself to be a spacious case as well as tough.

Departing Thoughts

So, what are my final thoughts on the Yeti Loadout GoBox 30 Gear Case in their seasonal colorway of Wetlands Brown?… Overall, I came away impressed like I am with every Yeti product that I review. I sadly did not get to review this Gear Case in any waterfowl hunts to get some use out of the seasonal colorway. I was blessed with the birth of my 1st son this fall. So, there was no waterfowl hunts that panned out for me. Regardless, this has proven to be an awesome storage solution for all of my Milwaukee tools which I am supremely grateful.
