TUMI x McLaren Launch New Era of Travel Gear: Extreme Capsule Collection
In an exhilarating leap forward for travel gear, globally celebrated travel and lifestyle brand TUMI has once again joined forces with McLaren Racing. This partnership charts new territory with the introduction of the TUMI McLaren Extreme Capsule collection.
The groundbreaking collaboration draws on the formidable prowess of the NEOM McLaren Extreme E Team, signalling a new chapter in travel accessories that are as performance-oriented as they are sustainability-minded.
Since 2019, TUMI has stood as the Official Luggage Partner for both the McLaren Formula 1 Team and McLaren Automotive while also recently being announced as the Official Luggage Partner for the NEOM McLaren Extreme E Team and the McLaren Shadow esports Team for 2024 and beyond. The announcement came as a nod to Extreme E's core mission: a racing series that champions sustainability and gender equality.
Reflecting Extreme E's commitment to sustainability, the TUMI McLaren Extreme Capsule emphasizes eco-friendly packaging solutions, including thin, minimal boxes and reusable compression storage bags for each product sold online. This approach aligns with the series' aim of reducing environmental impact, even in the realm of high-performance travel gear.
The capsule itself is a marvel of modern engineering and design, blending TUMI's renowned durability and functionality with McLaren's iconic aesthetic and performance heritage. Comprising three pieces—the Terrain Backpack, the Throttle Duffel, and the Rally Sling—each item is a testament to innovative craftsmanship.
From fully welded construction for unmatched durability to water-resistant materials ensuring protection against the elements, the collection sets a new standard for travel accessories. Additionally, features like magnetic fasteners, tuck-away straps, and dedicated laptop pockets cater to the practical needs of travellers and racers alike, without compromising on style or performance. The collection is set to make its way across the globe, accompanying the McLaren Extreme E Team on their environmentally conscious racing endeavours.
