By Marcus Vance
Owala manufactures the FreeSip in multiple capacities, but the Candy Coated colorway centers predominantly on the 24 oz and 32 oz models, with rare 40 oz appearances depending on specific retail runs. Choosing the correct volume dictates where and how you can comfortably use the bottle.

For drivers and daily transit commuters, the 24 oz FreeSip remains the undisputed sweet spot. Its 3.12-inch profile makes it a genuine cup holder friendly base, sliding easily into modern compact cars, studio exercise bikes, and external backpack pockets. The 32 oz and 40 oz options carry significantly more volume throughout long workdays, but their broad dimensions relegate them to the passenger seat or the floor of your bag.
