Direct answer
Short answer: Pick Owala FreeSip insulated stainless bottle when you want a push-button FreeSip lid that can sip through a straw or chug — popular for gym bags. Pick Stanley IceFlow Flip Straw Tumbler 30 oz when you want a 30 oz tumbler with handle, flip straw, and catalog cold/ice duration marketing (chilled ~12 hours / iced up to 2 days in the listing) that also cites cupholder fit.
For rougher hikes, prefer a bottle shape that packs in a side pocket; tumblers with handles shine on car/gym machine cupholders. Confirm exact capacity of the Owala offer you buy on Amazon (FreeSip comes in multiple sizes/colorways in the wider catalog).
