Why this gift works

The Owala FreeSip 24 oz Water Bottle is a triple-layer vacuum-insulated stainless steel bottle that Owala says keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours. Its patented FreeSip spout lets you sip through a built-in straw or tilt the bottle to drink from the wide opening, and the push-button lid locks with the carry loop. This is the Shy Marshmallow (off-white) color, 10.68 inches tall.

It is easy to drink from one-handed and locks shut for a bag, which makes it a practical gift she will carry to work, the gym and errands.

Who is this gift for?

Great for

  • A sister who works out
  • A busy commute
  • Long workdays

Think twice if

  • She wants a hot-drink tumbler
  • Her car has small cupholders

The catch

It is for cold drinks only - Owala says no hot, carbonated or perishable drinks - the body is hand-wash only, and at 3.12 inches wide it may not fit every car cupholder.

Skip if she already loves her Stanley or YETI, or wants a bottle for hot coffee.
