Know before you buy

The tumbler features a leak-resistant, double-threaded lid designed to provide a secure seal. While it is highly reliable for daily commutes and preventing spills, it is best to keep it upright when carrying it in a bag.
Yes, the tumbler is dishwasher safe. However, for the best results and to maintain the integrity of the seal, we recommend placing the lid on the top rack only.
No. The double-wall vacuum insulation prevents condensation from forming on the outside, so the surface remains dry and easy to grip regardless of the temperature of your drink.
