TUMI has been the Official Luggage Partner of the McLaren Formula 1 Team and McLaren Automotive since 2019, and in February was named the Official Luggage Partner of the NEOM McLaren Extreme E Team and McLaren Shadow esports Team for 2024 and beyond. The innovative all-electric off-road series, Extreme E is centered on promoting sustainability and championing gender equality. The highly competitive series sees eight teams embark on a ten-race global adventure with the shared mission of protecting the planet.
The TUMI | McLaren Extreme capsule combines cutting-edge technology, innovation and design excellence, highlighting the performance heritage of both partners. Each piece incorporates fully welded construction with state-of-the-art materials and techniques that truly push the boundaries of what this collection has done before. The pieces are unlined, lightweight and water-resistant, with TUMI+ functionality and pops of color that tie back to McLaren’s color palette.
The Terrain Backpack features a flat opening with a magnetic fastener to the main compartment. In addition to a tuck-away sternum strap and add-a-bag strap, it comes with a padded laptop pocket that can accommodate a 15” PC or 16” MacBook Pro. The Throttle Duffel, with top carry handles and a padded back panel, is accessible through a zip entry with hidden magnetic closures. It comes with tuck-away sternum and backpack straps. The scaled-down Rally Sling also features a zip entry to the main compartment as well as an open pocket and back transparent zip pocket.
