Tumi

After almost thirty years of providing superior products to affluent, globe-trotting frequent travelers, Tumi has become the world's leading brand of prestige travel, business, and personal accessories. Tumi's success can be traced to its continual focus on its founding principles of design excellence, functional superiority and technical innovation.

Started in 1975, the company took its name from a Peruvian god known to its founder during time spent in the American Peace Corps in South America. During the 1980's, Tumi's innovative introduction of soft, black-on-black ballistic nylon travel bags catapulted the company to its current leadership position. In the 1990's, sales increased by five times as consumers around the world increasingly preferred Tumi's unique blend of modern design an unmatched performance.

Today, Tumi holds more than 25 patents for its design and engineering breakthroughs. With the current introduction of the cutting edge T3 Collection and the launch of the Generation 4 luggage series, Tumi's reputation as the leading innovator in the travel and personal accessories category will be secure for years to come.
