This post was last updated on August 17th, 2021 at 02:53 pm

TUMI, the leading international travel and lifestyle brand, has launched its new collection designed and developed in partnership with luxury supercar maker and Formula 1 team, McLaren. The collection is available at TUMI.com, TUMI’s Global retail stores, McLarenstore.com, and select McLaren retailers globally.

Since announcing in 2019 that the two companies would work together, TUMI’s Creative Director Victor Sanz and Rob Melville, McLaren’s supercar Design Director, have created a premium collection of elegant business, travel and everyday essentials. From automotive to sports, TUMI is inspired by the world’s most innovative industries. For McLaren—a renowned global leader in embedding cutting-edge technology into products with a clear design aesthetic—travel and lifestyle are integral. The two brands share the common vision of continually pursuing higher levels of excellence, which is reflected in the considered details and choice of materials in the McLaren inspired TUMI range.

Embodying TUMI and McLaren’s mutual ethos of performance luxury, the collection comprises nine pieces, each encompassing elements of McLaren’s sleek, bold supercars and race cars. All are highlighted with McLaren’s signature Papaya colourway and feature CX6® carbon fiber accents. 

  • Key travel pieces include the Aero International Expandable 4 Wheel Carry-On and the Quantum Duffel. The carry-on is crafted in a hybrid of materials, including Tegris®, an extremely hard-wearing thermoplastic composite found in race cars. The hard shell is contrasted by a moulded-fabric front panel with a supercar-influenced design that is echoed throughout the collaboration. 
  • The Velocity Backpack was created to keep wearers connected all day long thanks to the inclusion of a USB port and padded laptop compartment. TUMI’s hallmark ‘Add-a-Bag’ sleeve makes it a fitting companion to the collection’s carry-on. 
  • The Torque Sling and Lumin Utility Pouch are contemporary styles for light-carry and hands-free days.
  • The Orbit Small Packing CubeTrace Expandable Organizer and split compartment Teron Travel Kit are ultra-portable accessories to keep your belongings protected, organised and readily available throughout every leg of your journey.
