In case you missed it, the world is currently obsessed with water bottles. The Stanley Cup craze has crowds flocking to stores and even groups of people clamoring for limited-edition tumbler colors. However, what these long lines might have missed is the next big thing: the Owala FreeSip.
The durable, lightweight, stainless steel water bottle is said to be leakproof and insulated and quickly became an Amazon bestseller. Now Owala is adding a new bottle to their line-up: The Owala FreeSip Twist. Featuring a sip and a swig mouthpiece, as well as a removable lid to add ice, the sleek new bottle can easily be slipped in and out of your bag. While just released, many colors have already sold out, but in a twist of fate, REI still has two colors in stock.
The hashtag #owala has amassed nearly 260 million views on TikTok. Social media trends aside, even Time Magazine has called the Owala FreeSip “hydration made fun” and included it in Time’s roundup of the 200 best inventions of 2023.
When compared to the Stanley Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumbler, the leakproof lid of the Owala FreeSip and the Owala FreeSip Twist wins out. Stanley tumblers have a hole in the lid where the straw is inserted, so water inevitably leaks out if it tips over. With Owala’s patented FreeSip spout, you can either take a swig from the wide-mouth opening or sip as you please with a convenient built-in straw.
Ready to try out the next big thing? Below, we’ve rounded up other great Owala products to keep you hydrated.
