Travel light with 19 Degree
Tumi recently launched 19 Degree, the first-ever aluminum luggage collection. 19 Degree has a modern and cutting-edge design with strategically sculpted angles in meticulously-crafted aluminum.
“With every mile traveled, city ventured, stamp on your passport, your journey will reach a new degree — it’s only fitting that you carry a bag that reflects your movement,” says creative director Victor Sanz. “19 Degree truly represents the art of intelligent design; when conceptualizing the collection, we approached it with the question ‘How can we make our design less elementary and more elevated than what is already on the market?’ We felt our customer deserved a better design and an overall better product that not only performs, but also looks cool while performing.”
The premium collection features a reinforced framecase design with two snap closures for carry-on bags and three snap closures for check-in bags — and die-cast corner caps for additional protection. The interior is expertly appointed with the finest aesthetic and organizational features including a lightweight lining with an embossed diamond pattern that complements the unique exterior pattern.
19 Degree is offered in carry-on and check-in sizes, from an International Carry-On through an Extended Trip Packing Case. All styles feature integrated low-profile TSA locks, Tumi Tracer, retractable molded top and sidecarry handles wrapped with leather detailing, and a patented X-Brace 45 telescoping handle system crafted from lightweight yet sturdy aircraft-grade aluminum, which contributes to the reduced weight of the bags. The four dual-spinning recessed wheels are engineered to offer effortless maneuverability and provide greater packing capacity inside.
