TUMI® luggage program offers a five-year warranty; covering zippers, wheels, and handles. Any changes made to the luggage by anyone other than TUMI voids the TUMI warranty and the item will not be eligible for repair.

Your ID code is located on the bottom area of the backside of the bottom area of your luggage piece.
