Omega Closure System

Tumi's patented closure system significantly reduces the risk of damage to the zipper. The Omega zipper puller is designed to break away from the bag if it becomes caught. The puller, rather than the entire zipper, is then quickly and easily replaced.

Tumi Tracer

The Tumi Tracer is an exclusive, complimentary program that helps reunite Tumi customers with their lost or stolen items. The core of the program is a unique 20-digit individual product number printed on a special metal plate that is permanently affixed to Tumi products. That number along with the owner's contact information, is entered into our Tracer database when a bag is registered with us, and used to help aid in the recovery of lost or stolen items that are reported to us.

FXT Ballistic

Tumi was the first to bring ballistic nylon to the consumer market over 30 years ago. Now we have perfected it with our exclusive FXT ballistic fabric, which combines a unique weave and a special coating to make it ultra-tough and virtually abrasion proof.

DuraFold

Tumi's patent-pending DuraFold construction method folds and reinforces the corners of hardside cases with heavy-duty stitching and impact-resistant caps that provide superior corner strength and impact resistance for long lasting use.

I’ve had this for awhile now and was initially reluctant to use due to the fact that I previous bag had more storage. I travel by air about 45 weeks a year for work and to that my bag is extension of me is an understatement! Anyhow, after finally switching over to this bag for everyday use, I’ve never looked back! This bag is the perfect size for the road warrior and it forced me to stop shoving stuff into it that I never used and didn’t need. Which added up to about 7 pounds of extra weight! I’m not implying that this is bag small by any means. I still have everything I need with me every week and a few things I probably don’t (thanks OCD)! Anyhow, great quality and still looks new about a year later. Would definitely buy it again!

So far this has been a fantastic bag. I have recently switched back to a shoulder carry from a roller brief. This bag fits perfectly on my carry-on and is lightweight and simple to carry on business. I was surprised at the room available inside as well as all the handy pockets on the outside. Cords and wires all have a place to fit and I am able to fit a little extra in as well. The bag is durable and I have high hopes of it holding up well, as my other TUMI bags have always done in the past!

I have taken about 4 trips since buying the bag and I must say this is a nice large and versatile bag. This is my first Tumi bag and the materials are well made. I can fit my 15" laptop, 9" iPad Pro. Bose QC15 headsets (case) extra battery and chargers comfortably.

This is basically the same bag as their very popular expandable bag in a thinner profile with some modern upgrades. The problem I had with the Tumi large screen bag was that it was too big and I wound up stuffing it to the gills. It was nice in that I could use it as an overnighter but it was overkill. I had that bag for 12 years before it finally gave out - some abrasion damage on the bottom that was likely my fault.

So, I opted for this thinner profile bag and I'm glad I did. I love this bag. It is your standard Tumi front configuration and I must say that the design works. Just trust me when I say that it has the perfect setup for compartments. The small thinner compartment in the front is lined for a water bottle but I use it for a battery pack storage and the large compartment for all my other essentials. It has a pocket that's RFID lined to protect a passport or credit cards.

Overall, it's just a phenomenal product.

The only down side is that I see these bags everywhere at the airport. They are extremely popular so I have a few personalization items to make sure I I have my bag and not somebody else's. I guy in line in front of me at the airport had this exact same bag. We struck up a conversation and joked with each other that we needed to make sure we didn't mix up our bags.

Overall, I can't say enough great things about this. It's the perfect size for a laptop + tablet + notebook + power cords + travel essentials a modern gentleman needs. No, I can't load it up like my old giant bag but my back is thankful for the downsizing.

This is the one you want if you travel a lot for work. There are compartments for everything to stay well organized. It is spacious without being bulky. The materials are excellent including the zippers. You will look as professional as you want to.

Finally retired my old Tumi expandable briefcase after 23 years, I beat the cr@p out of it and it kept coming back for more. This is new brief is updated for the millennia with conveniences and pockets for products that were not even thought of yet. Will this briefcase last as long? That remains to be seen, but it solid, well made and as updated as you would expect.

Quality is ok , the shoulder strap is rather cheap and makes a really annoying plastic click noise , if you are if you are 5ft 8 to 6 ft this bag will look huge on you , otherwise the compartments are good

Great briefcase - it's big enough to carry a few days worth of files and a smaller computer. The varied pockets allow for the carrying of flash drives and associated chargers and connectors. However, this bag is not going to get you through a longer trip. This is the perfect bag for back and forth to the office.
