TUMI introduces its 2026 Lunar New Year collection

TUMI is celebrating the Year of the Horse with a limited-edition Lunar New Year collection that channels the zodiac sign’s spirit of momentum, freedom and forward motion. Rooted in the symbolism of strength and optimism, the 2026 capsule blends cultural storytelling with the brand’s signature focus on performance-driven design.

Spanning key styles from the Alpha Bravo, Voyageur and Belden collections, the capsule reimagines familiar silhouettes through subtle equestrian references. Embossed horse motifs, bridle-inspired trims and contrast stitching run throughout, adding texture and meaning without overpowering theclean lines TUMI is known for.

“The Horse represents movement, freedom and an unwavering pursuit of what’s next — all qualities that deeply resonate with how we design at TUMI,” says Victor Sanz, Global Creative Director at TUMI. “This collection was about incorporating equestrian elements in a considered way, creating pieces that carry intention into the new year.”

Within the Alpha Bravo range, styles such as the Navigation Backpack, Search Backpack and Platoon Sling reflect the Horse’s dynamic energy, designed for lives constantly in motion. Functional details remain central, making the pieces equally suited to everyday movement and extended travel.

The Voyageur lineup returns with refreshed versions of its most recognisable silhouettes, including the Celina Backpack, Adela Crossbody and the relaunched Q Tote. Crafted from TUMI’s lightweight nylon, these styles feature refined equine accents, with select pieces including collectible lucky horseshoe coins and horse-embossed card cases — quiet nods to tradition and good fortune.

Continuing TUMI’s ongoing approach to celebrating cultural moments through design, the Year of the Horse capsule offers a modern interpretation of Lunar New Year symbolism. It invites wearers to step into 2026 with purpose, optimism and a sense of forward momentum.

The TUMI 2026 Lunar New Year Collection is available now in TUMI stores worldwide and online.
