The Owala FreeSip 32oz is a double-wall vacuum-insulated stainless-steel tumbler that keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours. It features Owala's signature FreeSip spout — a dual-sip design that lets you sip upright through a built-in straw or tilt back to drink from the spout opening. The push-to-open lid with lock keeps the spout clean and doubles as a carry loop. Made of BPA-free stainless steel, it has a wide mouth for easy cleaning and ice addition. The cup is hand-wash only (lid is dishwasher-safe). At 32oz and 3.24" diameter, it fits most standard cup holders. Priced at $27.99 (20% off list), it sits in the mid-premium range. Best for commuters, athletes, and travelers who want versatile sipping without sacrificing all-day cold retention.
