Tumi Luggage Introduced the Alpha Collection

Fans of the upscale Tumi Luggage will be excited about their introduction of the new Alpha line. This collection is lighter in weight than their previous collections. Quality has not been sacrificed to achieve the weight reduction either. The Alpha line is constructed of improved materials. The construction of the cases and the overall design is noticeably improved. They have used the parts from the previous Tumi collection that are reliable, durable, and highly functional. Aircraft grade aluminum telescopic locking handle systems are found on wheeled styles. This allows you to push or pull the luggage through busy airport terminals as need be. The integrated wheels and skids act as a structural component to strengthen the construction of the packing cases. The add-a-bag straps allow you to piggyback smaller pieces and the durable wheels can take the weight of wheeling two pieces together. You can also add one of the slips on totes to the top and wheel three pieces with these durable wheels! The new collection has great design with special details and advancements. These meet the needs of today's busy travelers and executives. Tumi Alpha consists of a softer FXT ballistic nylon. The bags are now more comfortable to touch and less structured. The luggage still has the distinctive black on black design. They have used jet-black fabric with matte black exposed zippers, along with all black handles, wheels and trim. The zippers are larger, easy to grip with super strong recessed coils. They also have the exclusive break away pullers. How can you tell the new line of Alpha at a glance? The line has the leather logo plaque rectangle for your monogram. Monogramming is the best and safest way to identify your luggage at busy airports today. It is permanent and cannot be removed easily. You can prove it is your bag when it has your initials on it. I'm sure you've noticed that no one is checking baggage claim numbers any longer at the airport as you're leaving. The Alpha collection from Tumi also has leather handle wraps with snap closures. This makes lifting more comfortable. The leather luggage tag has been re-sized to fit the bag. Larger tags for larger bags and smaller tags for smaller bags, business cases, and travel items. There are also more leather touch points on every bag. This leather trim makes the Alpha line very luxurious. You'll find leather at the zipper ends and internally on organization panels. Of course, the luggage comes complete with TSA combination locks. These are the only locks permitted at US airports, because they can be opened with a master key. Only TSA security personnel have the master key and it can be used when they deem it necessary to look inside your luggage. Other new design features are the bound edge construction and the soft comfortable automotive style nylon webbing straps. The lining is also softer, and consists of striped matte black stripes embossed on a jet-black background. The Tumi Alpha luggage collection comes complete with the Tumi Tracer program to unite you with your luggage should it become lost. The precision of design and performance unite to elevate this line of luggage. Frequent travelers have always appreciated the Tumi quality. If you plan to do a lot of business or vacation travel, you want to investigate the new Alpha line of luggage. And yes, you will know you've arrived when you travel with Tumi!
