Stanley Cups have generated a cult following for their aesthetically pleasing insulated drinkware that notably also fit in your car’s cupholder. The lifestyle brand has blown up in popularity with fans buying up new releases in just hours including its Mother’s Day styles and its statement-making neon collection — including a Barbie-like fuchsia pink cup. These tumblers are typically as much as $50, but that’s where Target’s Stanley Cup dupe comes in.

The online retailer dropped its own line of exclusive Owala FreeSip water bottles that come in six neutral and statement-making color combinations — and the collection is still in stock (for now).

Owala has quickly gone viral on TikTok as one of the most fashionable insulated tumblers, and at only $28, they’re selling fast. More than 58 million videos about the brand’s FreeSip Water Bottle have been made on the social media platform, with fans even going as far as to say the water bottle is “far better than Stanley.” Even Hilary Duff was spotted leaving the gym in 2023 with an Owala water bottle, according to People.

TikTok user Lehandra Staude has captured more than 20 million views for a video comparing Owala’s FreeSip to the Stanley Cup. Within the video you see the user flip the Stanley Cup on its side and see water leak all over the counter, demonstrating how non-leakproof Stanely Cups can be. Owala’s FreeSip not only provides two different ways to drink from it, but even includes a retractable loop for easy carrying as well as a lid to prevent any spills.

“Out with the old, goodbye Stanley,” Staude says in at the end of the video.
