Ahead of Lunar New Year, happening on February 17 this year, dozens of our editors’ go-to brands are unveiling exclusive homages to the Year of the Horse — including On’s Cloudmonster Void Year of the Horse sneaker with its flashes of gold and red; Kate Spade’s equestrian-coded Saddle Up Bag Charm; as well as beauty upgrades like Oribe’s Lunar New Year Hair Alchemy Set, featuring an ornate gift bag illustrated with a horse’s face, and Clarins’ Double Serum Lunar New Year Edition, with an online-exclusive bottle that looks almost too pretty to use.
But one of the buzziest arrivals to the Lunar New Year scene is no doubt Stanley, whose annual, Chinese zodiac–themed tumbler launches in the winter spark so much commotion, they tend to sell out in a few days. Luckily, Stanley’s The Lunar New Year Quencher ProTour Flip Straw Tumbler is still in stock as we speak (though it’s limited to only five purchases per customer), meaning you can finally get your hands on the hot-ticket item if you weren’t so lucky in 2025.
Clocking in at $50, the quintessential water bottle that has millions of TikTok views to its name now comes swathed in deep red — with gilded accents and inkwork that’s an ode to the Japanese art of Sumi-e. Channeling dynamism and balance at once, the resulting horse design is made for people “who know good things come to those who act,” per Stanley, and encourages you to pursue all your resolutions for 2026 with the swiftness and energy of a stallion.
On a practical level, this baby will become your daily hydration nonnegotiable: what with its double-wall vacuum insulation that keeps drinks cold for 11 hours, completely leakproof exterior, ergonomic handle, and built-in straw that can be flipped up at will whenever you’re craving your next sip. One of Stanley’s claims to fame is that its tumblers comfortably fit most car cupholders, and this special Lunar New Year Quencher is no exception.
Should you desire something a bit more compact, perhaps to take with you on an upcoming cold-weather trip, the cult-fave brand also has you covered. The Year of the Horse tumbler in question is offered in a 30-ounce iteration, which keeps things more streamlined but no less statement-making.
And though the Lunar New Year drop doesn’t include Stanley’s headline-generating Quencher H2.0 Flowstate Tumbler, which operates on the basis of a regular, long straw versus a flip straw, you can still tap into the holiday’s color palette of gold — associated with material abundance and good fortune — plus red (another harbinger of luck and prosperity that’s featured on everything from lanterns to the money-filled envelopes that are traditionally given out during Chinese New Year festivities) by adding The Cheers & Cheer Quencher H2.0 Flowstate Tumbler to cart.
We promise you no one will know it’s an on-sale Christmas release.
