I mean if you can afford private jets where someone carefully handles you stuff, having fancy bags make sense. If people can do the CPM math equation. Years ago, I purchased several tumi bags for myself and my wife. This in my mind justified their stratospheric pricing. Somewhere along the way they abruptly halted this policy. I was informed of this change during a call to tumi by a rather rude and unpleasant customer service representative. Afterwards they convinced me over several encounters that they no longer wanted my business. Never again.
Tumi was great with a lifetime warranty till they got rid of it in when they were acquired, they got bought again by Samsonite in What did bring me there was the United miles shopping portal at 15x per dollar at eBags on qualifying luggage. So for those not into cash back portals, United miles are likely enticing.
You can also get a lot of points through airline shopping portals to ebags and tumi. On top of that you if you are fortunate enough you can find a discounted tumi gift card online. I am so done with Tumi. Used to love their luggage. They never answered any of my emails. I am, however, a happy user of Rimowa.

I have to agree that Rimowa is superior. I have a Rimowa Topas carry on 2 wheels, not spinners and for a fair comparison my wife has an aluminum Tumi 19 degree carry on. We love both bags but she often asks to pull the Rimowa as the Tumi is a pain to drag over rough terrain, especially the bumps they use to help the visually impaired which seem to be everywhere in Hong Kong and other Asian cities.
The Tumi might be more of a head turner but I prefer the more professional look of the Rimowa and would definitely choose it if we could only have 1.
Definitely would recommend a polycarbonate checked bag over aluminum if your debating. Victorinox for the win. Im looking into buying a Rimowa Salsa Deluxe checked bag and a small carry on one. I also love the new Louis V carry on roller.
Andrew Y, Indeed, and if you only count the first bunch of bags C class, F, priority, alliance status etc the ratio is even higher. Hong Konger Yes, I noticed that too. Asia people seem to love to spend money on Rimowa. Many of them are aluminum. I never see so many of them in my life at one place. Not something I see in USA. I always get myself a very nice carryon… For check in bags, I am really cheap in that area. I own 5 Rimowas. I see the value in a trolley, Trunk with the quality of wheels. Going on my 11th year now. Squeeky wheels, the handle needs an extra shove to go down sometimes but still holding up.
The best but rarely mentioned feature of Rimowa luggage is the wheels. Absolutely zero rolling resistance. LV or other designer monogram are probably used best when handled with care. Still I agree with spending on a nice carry-on. But hey who am I to judge.

X2 for rimowa. Rimowa is even more overpriced than Tumi, and even harder to get a good deal on. For me, TopCashBack took a few months for me to get my cash back so be aware of that. Get a Proteca. While a nice looking, durable carry on makes some sense of an investment and class. This is a heckuva deal on Tumi when you finally get the cashback.
My last tumi bag lasted 17 years being tossed around in airports so I am very much a fan. Garrett, interested in offloading your Rimowa carry on for a discount? Tumi is so ugly and so expensive.
