Tumi has also become the official luggage partner of the PGA Tour and LPGA
Get ready to hit the links in style.
On Tuesday, Tumi announced it has entered a multi-year partnership with the PGA Tour and LPGA, becoming the official luggage partner of both golf organisations. As part of the new endeavour, the luxury travel company has launched its first golf collection.
The brainchild of Tumi’s creative director Victor Sanz, the line showcases the brand’s high-performance materials and design innovations. The drop includes a total of 22 items, with the majority available in either black or a combination of off-white and tan. The pieces run the gamut from stylish golf bags and club covers to an elegant cigar case for your Cubans.
The golf bag is, of course, the star of the collection. It is available in three variations: Stand, Range, and Cart. (The Range has enough space for five clubs, while the Stand and Cart can hold up to 14.) Each is crafted from hardwearing materials like FXT Ballistic Nylon that ensures durability on the green and is topped with soft-touch padding for added comfort. The bags also come with nifty features, such as USB-C charging ports and cooler pockets.
Other highlights of the collection include duffle bags, divot tools, and club covers. The Golf Duffle is small enough that it can be carried as a backpack yet big enough that it can hold your golf shoes. The divot tools, which come housed in leather cases, feature magnetic ball markers and integrated bottle openers. The club covers, meanwhile, are made of FXT Ballistic Nylon and finished with an abrasion-resistant coating.
The cigar case is perhaps the most interesting piece, however. Crafted from lightweight carbon fibre, the stealthy black case has three barrels to hold your favourite cigars. Hey, who doesn’t like a Davidoff after the final hole?
Golf and travel bags from Tumi’s new golf collection range from US$795 to US$1,595. Additional bags and accessories range from US$125 to US$650.
