But Tumi didn’t stop there. Every detail, even the zippers, was meticulously considered. Some parts, like the low-density magnesium telescoping handles, were even improved or entirely swapped.
However, cutting weight was just half of the battle. In the redesign, Tumi wanted to ensure the bags were still tough enough for the rigors of international travel. The brand didn’t just go for what was lightweight; it carefully chose parts that were also robust and resilient.
All in the family
Like its predecessor, the 19 Degree Lite collection encompasses numerous bag sizes and different colorways. That includes both Continential and International Carry-Ons, the Short Trip 4 Wheeled Packing Case and the Extended Trip 4 Wheeled Packing Case.
Color options include Black Graphite, Blush (a pale pink), Amber (orange), Cobalt (blue) and Titanium Grey. That means there’s a lot of different sizes and styles to choose from, allowing you to customize your luggage set.
