Tumi, a leading lifestyle and travel brand partners up with luxury supercar maker and Formula 1 team, McLaren to design a premium collection of elegant business, travel and everyday essentials. In 2019, the two companies announced their partnership and Tumi creative directors Victor Sanz and Rob Melville, together with McLauren's supercar design director, have been working on the launch of this collection.

Tumi draws inspiration from the world's most innovative industries, whether it's automotive or sports, while McLaren, a renowned global leader in embedding cutting-edge technology into products with a clear design aesthetic, sees travel and lifestyle as an integral aspect of their designs. The two share the common vision of continually pursuing higher levels of excellence, which is reflected in the considered details and choice of materials in the new Tumi x McLaren collection.
