Dror for TumiLuxury luggage maker Tumi has clearly been busy this year. Not content with merely wheeling out Tegra-Lite, an irresistibly lightweight and durable range made from a polypropylene thermoplastic composite ordinarily found in body armour, it has also collaborated with designer Dror Benshetrit to create the Dror for Tumi collection, an innovative new series of 11 travel bags – eight of which change shape to provide flexible use. Rising above an impressive cross section of laptop bags, backpacks, four-wheeled suitcases and overnighters is the collection’s signature piece, dubbed the ‘International Carry-On’. It’s the world’s first expandable hardside to permit a zipperless two-stage expansion via a ‘living hinge’ that can adjust the bag’s depth from 22.9cm to 35.6cm, almost doubling its capacity.
