Cheers to Being Different: (The First) Happier Slim Can Cooler

The search is over! Here is our first neoprene cozy to fit those skinny cans of hard seltzer, wine, coffee, fitness and energy drinks: the Happier Slim Can Cooler.

What’s especially cool about our first neoprene slim can cozy is its versatility. We designed the skinny can cozy to work and look great with two different slim can sizes! The Happier Place can cooler perfectly fits a tall 12 oz. slim can; AND with the top folded over it’s ideal for the popular shorter 250 ml (8.4 oz.) slim can. Because the inside of the neoprene cozy is a different color, folding it down adds a vibrant accent. Nice!

The Happier Slim Can Cooler doesn’t just keep your tall and short skinny drinks cool and your hands dry, it also spreads a positive message.

Be kind. Be brave. Be happier.

The slogan “Be kind. Be brave. Be happier.” is an encouragement to be kind and open-minded towards the other, ourselves and the world. This we believe will lead us all to be happier. Don’t you agree?

Unspoken but implied in this slogan is the idea of “being different”. Maybe who or what you’re interacting with is different from what you’re used to – or maybe you are choosing to be different. Cheers to being different!

Although beverages in slim cans have been around for a little while, they still seem to be different enough that it’s challenging to find cozies for them. That is why we are so excited to finally offer a high-quality neoprene slim can cozy for those who like to drink their hard seltzers, wine and coffee drinks cold.

Happier Slim Can Cooler Fits Tall Slim Cans and Short Skinny Cans!

Now you can finally enjoy all the benefits of an insulated cozy with your beverages in slim 12 oz. cans. For example, our Happier Neoprene Slim Can Cooler fits hard seltzers (e.g., White Claw Hard Seltzer, Henry’s Hard Sparkling Water, Smirnoff Spiked Sparkling Seltzer, Truly Hard Seltzer, Bon & Viv Spiked Seltzer), energy drinks (e.g., Red Bull Editions, Celsius Fitness Drinks), flavored non-alcoholic seltzers (e.g., Bai Bubbles, Dasani Sparkling) and even some sodas (e.g. Diet Coke, Dry Sparkling Soda). By the way, some people know this cozy size as Michelob Ultra Light can coozie. So yeah, it fits that beverage, too.

With the top folded over a bit, the Happier Neoprene Slim Can Cooler fits 250 ml, 8.4 oz. and 9 oz. cans popular for wine and wine beverages (e.g. Barefoot Spritzer, Lila Wines, flipflop wines, Surf Swim Chardonnay), coffee drinks (e.g. La Colombe Draft Latte, High Brew) and various Trader Joe’s small drink cans (e.g. TJ’s Coconut Water, Simpler Wine). Bonus of rolling down the top: provides an extra lip to keep the drink from slipping out of your hand and a pretty color accent.

Everyone at Happier Place embraces the idea of all these beverages being available in cans today. It’s great that we can now take wine, seltzers and coffee drinks outdoors without worrying about breaking glass in nature.

We’ve also come to appreciate the hard sparkling waters or spiked seltzers. Even though they’re based on fermented sugar, they’re low in calories and carbs. They’re gluten-free and usually without artificial sweeteners or colors. And they mostly taste just like sparkling water with just a hint of fruit. Not too much alcohol makes them great for day-drinking. These seltzers are the kind of refreshment that can turn a Happy Place into a Happier Place – especially when kept cool in a Happier Slim Can Cozy!

UPDATE JUNE 2019: This just in… the Happier Place Slim Can Cooler also fits 16 oz. tallboy cans. It’s a bit of a stretch – but it’s stretchy neoprene material. So it works!

UPDATE Oct. 2019: We now offer a variety of slim can cozies!

Benefits of Using a Happier Slim Can Cooler:

• In the winter: keeps the cold drink from cooling down your hands
• Better grip on your beverage
• Less slippery when can rests on smooth surface
• Disguises beverage brand and type
• Folds flat for easy transport and storage
• Inspires you and others to be kind and to be brave, which usually leads to being happier
• Protective cushioned sleeve for your iPhone (or similar-sized phone) inside that bag you just threw it into together with your keys

Oh, and just in case after you look at that post, you wonder what happened to our personal can cooler collection after moving from Colorado to Florida… it expanded to two drawers. And the latest addition is from the St. Petersburg Dalí museum. Yes, we’re dorky collectors – but not hoarders since we put our cozies in order by color and size in a “display case”.
