Owala water bottles: Your essential guide to stylish hydration in 2024

Whether you’re a couch potato trudging to the office or a gym bro living the fitspo life, staying hydrated in Singapore’s humid climate is critical. Enter the reusable water bottle, that must-have eco-friendly accessory you used to flex in Primary school. If you’re hunting for one, it’s likely that Owala water bottles have popped up on your radar. They’re not the only player in the hydrate-with-style game, but they’ve helped make hydration a thing.
The Owala FreeSip was listed as one of Time.com’s best inventions of 2023. The FreeSip spout offers two drinking options – sip through the built-in straw or chug for all you’re worth through the spout.
Owala water bottles are ergonomic and come in sizes from 12oz to 40oz. Some limited editions can change hands for hundreds of dollars. They are made from stainless steel and Tritan, providing insulation for cold and/or hot drinks.

Can hot or carbonated beverages be used in the FreeSip water bottle?
The Stainless Steel FreeSip water bottle shouldn’t be used with hot, carbonated, or perishable liquids. If your go-to drinks are hot or carbonated beverages, look at one of their tumblers or the FreeSip Twist.
Are FreeSip water bottles dishwasher safe?
The lids of stainless steel bottles are dishwasher safe and the straws can go in the silverware bin. While the cups are dishwasher safe, Owala recommends hand-washing them to protect the finish.
Tritan plastic bottles are top-rack dishwasher safe.
