Design Excellence

We seek it. We study it. Yes, we obsess over it. From aeronautics to automotives to sports — we’re constantly inspired by the world’s most innovative industries to create products that work for you. And with more than 125 patents to our name, our passion for forward-thinking is what keeps us ahead of the curve.

We create products that incorporate the most advanced and state-of-the-art components to prevent problems from arising.

Omega Closure System

This system reduces the risk of damage to the zipper and makes replacing one unnecessary.

Functional Superiority

Our innovation doesn’t happen in a vacuum. People inspire everything we do. That is why we take every product out into the real world to be assessed in multiple scenarios. Our products are put through comprehensive testing to ensure they will perform and endure. And, in the unlikely event you have an issue — we'll fix it.

SUSTAINABILITY

Innovative by Nature Sustainable by Choice

TUMI products protect your belongings when you travel. Our planet is an astonishing place, and we believe it’s our responsibility to preserve it for travelers of the future. By putting excellence and quality first, we are committed to creating quality TUMI products that have lifelong purpose, supported by our rigorous testing standards, recycled materials and global repair network.

Exceptional quality and unparalleled durability are paramount to every piece TUMI creates, including those made with recycled materials.

Our recycled collections use fabric made from post-consumer recycled plastic bottles as well as recycled nylon.

If something goes awry, we'll fix it. If it breaks, we’ll repair it. If it’s lost, we’ll help you track it with the TUMI Tracer® recovery program. This means fewer bags end up in landfills.

MATERIAL INNOVATION

Recycled Plastic

980,531 plastic bottles have been diverted from landfills and converted into reusable materials for TUMI bags. We use post-consumer recycled PET fabric as the interior lining, zipper tape, webbing and binding.

Innovative Products

We create high-quality products using sustainable materials. One percent of proceeds from our largely recycled 19 Degree collection will support environmental causes that are part of the 1% for the Planet network.

Carbon Action

We’re working with our operations around the world to reduce carbon emissions by 15% and transition to 100% renewable energy by 2025. We are doing our part to preserve the world’s beautiful places.

Thriving Supply Chain

Our supplier code of conduct requires our suppliers to meet our standards of fair and responsible business, so that everyone involved in the making of TUMI luggage is treated with respect and care.

People Focused

Our journey is powered by people, our greatest asset. Working with exceptional partners like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, All Hands and Hearts and Waves for Water, has allowed us to help make tough journeys a little easier on the way to better places.

PHILANTHROPY

Partners We Believe In
