The TUMI Spring 2018 collections celebrate California, with its wide variety of jaw-dropping landscapes and sun-kissed cities, capturing that famous laid-back vibe. TUMI journeyed throughout the state and, among the beaches, deserts and vibrant cities, discovered incredible pockets of fashion, tech, art, design and music. With an exciting colour palette and bold patterns, as well as pops of neon in unexpected places, Spring 2018 will take the traveller on an exciting adventure.
Launching in Spring 2018 is the new TUMI Merge collection. When form and function come together, it is as if all touchpoints blend to create a cohesive design. The new TUMI Merge collection does just that; bringing together the design DNA of TUMI and a lightweight, relaxed option for the next generation of TUMI consumers.
