Known for luggage that combines performance, organization, and innovative design, Tumi offers a large variety of lines and frequently adds new lines and products to its inventory.
Flow, the day bag collection seen in the photograph, has cleverly integrated handy pockets, multiple compartments, and exterior cord ports for ear buds into its design.
T3, another recent Tumi collection, is sculptural, ergonomic, and sheathed in Hybrix, an ultra-durable, abrasion-resistant, waterproof, tear-resistant, stain proof fabric that Tumi developed for this line.
According to Tumi’s Vice President of Design, Timm Fenton, “I find inspiration for my work by examining the latest technologies from outside resources and industries but I always maintain the emotional side to the finished design.”
