TUMI, the leading international brand of travel, business and lifestyle accessories has collaborated with Hollywood actor Chris Pratt on 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.
The TUMI x Chris Pratt collection encompasses the brand’s design innovation, engineering, functionality, and performance DNA while including Chris’ personal on-the-road style. The idea for the product collaboration came about whilst Chris, a long-term TUMI user was filming TUMI’s APAC & ME Regional Spring 2019 Campaign. On set, Chris and Victor started brainstorming their dream bag –by the time the shoot wrapped – a collaboration was in the cards.
“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. Working with Victor and the design team was a really new and eye-opening experience – it’s something I’ve never done before and it really showed me the attention to detail that goes into creating each bag. I’m so happy with the collection and look forward to others enjoying it,” said Chris Pratt.
The special TUMI x Chris Pratt collection features a brand new 2-in-1 Backpack Duffel, unique travel cases, and a range of packing cubes and accessories for a perfect journey. The aesthetic of the TUMI x Chris Pratt collection is defined by striking Orange accents that brilliantly adorn each piece. The signature shade of Orange was personally chosen by Chris Pratt and will remain Chris’s exclusive color throughout all his collaboration pieces. The limited-edition collection will be available at TUMI retail stores and TUMI.com this November.
Built to offer superior functionality in addition to style, the TUMI x Chris Pratt 2-in-1 backpack duffel styles and travel cases implement innovative new design features such as the USB ports for charging on the go (battery bank not included*). A story patch with a recycle statement and logo showcase the usage of recycled materials in major parts of all the backpack duffel and travel case styles. Recycled nylon is the main material used to construct the exterior, while the interior lining and details are constructed from recycled PET, made from plastic bottles. These recycled materials use post-industrial and post-consumer waste that would otherwise end up in landfills. With zero compromises on performance, the recycled materials meet TUMI’s rigorous standards and are designed to deliver the brand’s signature strength and premium quality.
TUMI x Chris Pratt Short Trip Front Lid Expandable Packing Case and International Front Lid Expandable Carry On
The new TUMI x Chris Pratt Short Trip Front Lid Expandable Packing Case and TUMI x Chris Pratt International Front Lid Expandable Carry On are exclusive travel cases inspired by the Alpha Bravo collection. Created with recycled materials, the cases have been created for extreme convenience and ease of use. 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 compartmentalize the case and keep belongings organized. These can be used to pack shoes or just keep items separate. There is also a zipper expansion feature on both cases which provides 2 inches of additional space for extra purchases. In addition, the Carry-On features an all-important USB port for charging devices on the go. For a stand out touch, signature Orange accents feature prominently along the webbed top and side carry handle, main zipper pullers, lining, and monogram frame.
