The year-end is approaching and you know what that means: Planning trips to scenic views and shopping havens all over the world! But I’ve fallen victim to many breakages during trips or even right before. Not to mention, you have to go through so much mental gymnastics just to figure out how much you can bring, which is simply frustrating. After all, how are you supposed to know how much you’re gonna buy?
If you’re looking for a reliable travel companion that elevates your airport fit, you won’t get any better than TUMI. With the amount of unique collections they have, you are sure to find a suitcase to fit your needs. Be it luggage you don’t want to carry on hand or one that protects your goodies from getting destroyed on the way back from your destination, TUMI has your back.
As travel season ramps up again this year, TUMI rolls out its 2024 Fall Collections, which includes the Turin collection, additions to the existing Voyageur, 19 Degree Aluminium, and TUMI Sports collections as well as the highlight of today’s article: the 19 Degree Frame collection.
19 Degree Frame Collection
An extension to the original 19 Degree collection, the 19 Degree Frame is a hybrid of existing designs to prevent an additional headache to your travelling experience. This collection stands out through its frame system opening, so you don’t have to worry about your zippers malfunctioning while fighting your overpacking tendencies. Just pop it close and it’ll stay closed, simple as that!
While it is true that this method of closure is more common for luggages made of heavier aluminium, it is not the case (pun intended) for this luggage. Still retaining the signature polycarbonate of the original 19 Degree collection, the suitcases in this collection are lightweight and flexible, while still providing that sure win protection all your belongings deserve. Known for its priority in sustainability, TUMI’s polycarbonate used is recycled and 1% of proceeds from the entirety of the 19 Degree Collection is donated to the 1% for the Planet initiative.
Despite all these features, the design of the suitcases has not been compromised at all. Simple yet distinctive, the collection appeals to travellers who prefer more elegance when they travel. Keeping the iconic contours of the 19 Degree collection, it enhances the structural integrity and functionality of the 19 Degree Frame luggages – a seamless blend between form and function. Available in the tasteful Black Texture as well as the polished Pearl Grey, the 19 Degree Frame collection emphasises a simple and monochromatic colour palette.
Now that we’ve explored the exterior, let’s take a peek inside! After all, what’s the point of having an insane amount of protection when you can’t pack anything in? Luckily, TUMI’s travel cases are spacious and wide, so I’m sure you can fit anything you need. But, what if everything is just thrown out of place during the ride to your destination? You don’t have to worry about that as the space inside is equipped with deliberate design choices to hold your items in place.
The luggage is split into two sections. On one side, the compartment includes tie-down straps as well as a mesh covering, perfect for holding bulkier items like a laptop in place. On the other, a zip compartment with pockets, fit for smaller things. Organising items has always been fun, and this collection allows you to do it your way.
We’ve seen what the suitcase is like but let’s talk about something that is often overlooked: the handles. You truly don’t realise how important the durability of the handles is until you’ve accidentally snapped them off while retrieving them from the baggage claim. Well, TUMI has patented the X-Brace 45 Handle to absorb impact around the handle tubes, creating a little bubble of protection. Made from aircraft-grade aluminium, this feature is made to minimize any damage to the handles.
Versatility is key in this collection. Regardless of whether you’re going for a short trip or an extended journey, this collection has luggage to suit. From carry-ons to larger checked luggage, the 19 Degree Frame offers a varied selection of sizes for different travel needs. So rest assured that you don’t have to haul a ridiculous amount of suitcases on your travel.
