Product quality and selection are key attributes that have made TUMI the leading international business, accessory and travel lifestyle brand. Simply put, there is no other product made like TUMI. This is what we call the TUMI Difference. It is how we approach every aspect and detail of product design. We regard each component—from the smallest, case-hardened solid steel machine screw to our exclusive, virtually abrasion-proof FXT™ Ballistic Nylon® fabric— of each item as if it were the most important.

Our innovation doesn't happen in a vacuum. People inspire everything we do. Which is why we take each and every product out into the real world, testing, touching and trying in every imaginable scenario — and ultimately rejecting anything that doesnt upgrade and streamline your life. It's about tools that provide solutions, before the problems even cross your mind.
Security is essential — but our goal is to cut down your time in line. With TSA— approved T-Pass®technology, you can leave your laptop in your bag as it passes through scanners — giving you one less thing to worry about while getting to the gate.
Wireless identity theft — where theives use a small, hidden scanner to pick up the information stored in the magnetic strip of credit cards and IDs — can happen in 12 seconds, and is becoming an alarming epidemic. Our RFID-blocking ID Lock material, used in pocket linings, haults the transmission, keeping sensitive information safely unreadable.
Our Add-a-Bag technology quickly and easily allows travelers to effortlessly carry two or three items at the same time with one hand. Our patented Add-a-Bag hook holds in excess of 200 lbs. Alternatively, many TUMI business bags, totes and backpacks feature a back sleeve that slips over luggage handles allowing travelers to stack and carry multiple items.
Move with greater ease with our patented shoulder strap design. The metal loop joints that attach the straps to the shoulder pad help keep the bag from sliding off your shoulder as you move.
