Abstract
A thermally insulated holder for beverage cans includes a cylindrical sleeve and a retaining ring that couples to the upper end of the sleeve. A beverage can fits into the sleeve with the upper portion of the can extending above the sleeve. The retaining ring has a circular opening in its upper wall that engages the shoulder of the can to clamp the can in place. The retaining ring has a side wall that extends outward of the sleeve and down over the upper end of the sleeve. The lower edge of the retaining ring side wall defines a ledge. A user can grasp the sleeve with one or more fingers in contact with the ledge to provide a more comfortable and secure grip.
