Owala Kids FreeSip 16 oz Stainless Steel Water Bottle
Two ways to drink, in a kid-sized bottle
The 16 oz Owala Kids’ FreeSip brings the patented sip-or-swig spout to ages 3 and up. Sip upright through the straw or tilt for a bigger drink; the stainless steel bottle keeps water cold with triple-layer vacuum insulation, while the covered spout and fold-away carry loop suit school-day hydration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which capacity is this page for?
This is the 16 US fl oz stainless steel Kids’ FreeSip. Select the colour option for this capacity; other sizes and Tritan plastic models are different listings.
What age is Kids’ FreeSip designed for?
Owala specifies ages 3 and up for this 16 oz Kids’ FreeSip. It has the same sip-or-swig spout concept in a smaller bottle; it is not an infant feeding bottle.
How do I sip or swig?
Hold the bottle upright to sip through the built-in straw, or tilt it to drink through the larger opening in the same FreeSip spout. The included straw can be removed for cleaning.
How long does it keep water cold?
The stainless steel FreeSip uses triple-layer vacuum insulation; Owala states 24 hours cold. This is a cold-drink bottle, not a hot-drink flask.
Can I use hot, fizzy or perishable drinks?
No. The manufacturer specifically warns against hot, carbonated and perishable liquids, including warm dairy products and baby food. Use it for cold water instead.
Is it leakproof?
The lid is leakproof when properly closed and the seals are correctly installed. Fold the carry loop over the button to help prevent accidental opening before carrying it in a bag.
Which pieces can go in the dishwasher?
The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe and the straw can go in the utensil basket. Owala recommends hand-washing the stainless steel bottle to protect its finish. Clean and reinstall the gasket correctly.
Can I add ice or put it in the freezer?
Add ice through the wide bottle opening. Do not freeze, microwave or boil the bottle.
What should I know before opening it on a flight?
Altitude changes or exposure to heat can increase pressure and cause spraying. Open cautiously, release pressure by loosening the lid a quarter turn, and retighten before drinking. Keep fingers away from the recess behind the cover.
Is the bottle BPA-, lead- and phthalate-free?
Yes. Owala identifies this stainless steel FreeSip model as BPA-, lead- and phthalate-free. It is not the separate Tritan plastic bottle.
What comes with the bottle?
One stainless steel bottle with its matching FreeSip lid, built-in carry loop and removable drinking straw. Extra lids, bottle boots, brushes and other accessories are not included.
Care & Use
Wash before first use and after use. Hand-wash the stainless steel bottle to preserve its finish; put the lid on the top dishwasher rack and the straw in the utensil basket. Use a straw brush for the straw and fluid passage. Remove and clean the gasket, then reassemble only when dry and check all seals are correctly installed. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives. Do not microwave, freeze or boil. Do not fill with hot, carbonated or perishable liquids. Changes in altitude or hot surroundings can build pressure: cautiously loosen the lid a quarter turn to release pressure, retighten before drinking, and keep fingers away from the recess behind the spout cover when opening.
