Joining the Tumi Luggage “Cult”

[deirdre]

You know, I never should say anything like I don’t want to join a cult in jest like I did here, because the universe is a perverse place.

I’d narrowed down my luggage choices to four, and I’d have been happy with at least three of them.

I went and looked at spinners and fell for Tumi’s smaller international-sized carryon. Yes, it’s larger than I wanted. Yes, it’s hard-sided, but it’ll be useful for larger planes and stuff. But, more importantly, there were two other factors: I thought it had better corner crush support than its competitors, and I found it on sale.

I wasn’t super-crazy about any of the colors, but, hey, at least they have colors. So I picked the “breast cancer awareness” pink multi.
