Formula T: The New Leather Collection from Tumi

October 26, 2005 -- Never ordinary, always cutting edge in style, Tumi’s first all leather briefcase collection is meant for the true sophisticate who appreciates fine design and luxurious, contemporary styling. In two shades of leather, the seven piece collection provides a complete range of shoulder and hand-held styles for the modern, international businessman.

Design details include key lock polished stainless steel “T” closure, a detachable nylon strap with leather shoulder pad, contrast fabric lining, padded handles and molded rubber feet on the bottom panels of the cases. Tumi’s Vice President of Design, Timm Fenton says, “The Formula T collection demonstrates Tumi’s commitment to innovate through product design. The group looks to other technologies and stretches the boundaries of how a traditional product, such as a briefcase, can be manufactured and designed by incorporating non-traditional processes such as formed leather. “

All of the styles come with a credit card sized stainless steel temperature and international sizing conversion card. Retail prices range from $250 for the Wedge men’s clutch to $575 for the Turbo compartment brief with a fully padded laptop divider.

Tumi is committed to excellence in design and innovation and has a dedicated following amongst international politicians, executive travelers and celebrities. Tumi products are sold worldwide in Tumi stores, department stores, specialty shops, and at www.Tumi.com.
