December 9, 2019: Luggage brand TUMI has expanded its collaboration with Hollywood actor Chris Pratt to create a unique collection for Asia Pacific & The Middle East. The TUMI x Chris Pratt collection was designed by Chris Pratt and TUMI Creative Director, Victor Sanz and features a 9-piece, ultra-exclusive capsule inspired by Chris’ personal packing style.
“On my travels, it’s important to have something that roots me and makes me feel like I’m at home – my luggage is one of those things because it’s one of the only constants I have in my hotel room. I live out of my TUMI and the things it carries remind me of home. Anywhere I go, I can turn my hotel room into my bedroom, and it always comes out of the same luggage. After using TUMI for the past ten years, it was really exciting for me to get to design my own line and create my own TUMI with all the personal touches I love.” said Mr. Pratt.
The TUMI x Chris Pratt collection is defined by striking orange accents that brilliantly adorn each piece. This signature shade, personally chosen by Mr. Pratt, will remain his exclusive color throughout all his collaboration pieces. The limited-edition collection is available at TUMI retail stores and TUMI.com.
The 2-in-1 Backpack Duffel is a convertible style that is easily worn as a backpack or carried as a duffel with carry straps that tuck away when not in use. Made with recycled nylon and recycled PET materials, the backpack has a USB port for charging devices, which is the first time ever TUMI has implemented a USB port in a bag style. Other cool design features include two special waterproof-lined pockets with air vents for shoes, wet clothing or a water bottle (at the bottom and left hand side of the bag). It comes in two versions – a limited and numbered Large 2-in-1 Backpack Duffel, as well as a more compact Small 2-in-1 Backpack Duffel.
The Short Trip Front Lid Expandable Packing Case and International Front Lid Expandable Carry On are exclusive travel cases created with recycled materials. Both cases have dual-access to the main compartment, which is possible through a split case opening and a front lid opening – catering to different packing styles. Grab handles on the outside of the case and at the bottom make it super easy to pull the bag off the luggage carousel or store the Carry On in the overhead compartment on a plane. Inside the bags, helpful flaps pop up to keep belongings organized. A zipper expansion feature on both cases provides 2 inches of additional space. In addition, the Carry-On features a USB port for charging devices on the go.
For a stylish laptop carrier, the Large Travel Laptop Case is perfect. With a removable sleeve for laptops up to 15”, a zipper opening to the large main compartment and a gusseted front zipper pocket for items you use the most, the brief is a super versatile travel and business companion. Other features include a padded tablet pocket and multiple pockets for accessories, including a water-resistant external pocket for an umbrella or water bottle.
The Reno Kit can hold all your personal accessories from shower and skincare products to personal items. The waterproof U-zip pocket also means that wet items can be kept contained and separate. Its side clip can also be used to attach to a towel rail.
Complementing the travel cases are Packing Cubes in three different sizes. Useful and fun accessories such as the S’well 17oz Bottle and Rubik’s Cube round out the assortment to give travelers all the tools they need to enjoy their journey. For China, an exclusive TUMI x Chris Pratt Surefire Flashlight will also be available in the collection’s signature Orange as a functional yet stylish accessory.
