TUMI, the international travel and lifestyle brand, specializes in products 
featuring elevated craftsmanship, durability and resilience. Each Tottenham 
Hotspur tour team member will receive personalized TUMI products to ease their 
journey, featuring a variety of gear, including the brand's iconic Alpha Bravo 
Search Backpack and 19 Degree Extended Trip Expandable 4 Wheel Packing Case, 
both comprised with recycled materials.

Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League Golden Boot winner, Son Heung-min, is 
already a TUMI brand ambassador.  As an Official Partner of Tottenham Hotspur, 
this expands TUMI's relationship with Son and presents an opportunity to 
support his colleagues.  Speaking about his Club's new partnership with TUMI, 
Son said: "I'm so happy that my partner, TUMI, is supporting my Club this 
summer for our tour.  I'm excited to have my teammates join me in my home 
country.  It's perfect for them to arrive in style thanks to TUMI."

"We are committed to perfecting the journey and have been long inspired by 
Son's unwavering dedication to be the best he can be, both for his team and 
representing his home country. We couldn't be more thrilled to expand our 
partnership to support his full team on this momentous trip and look forward to 
welcoming them to Korea," said Jay Jeong, Brand Head of TUMI Korea.

In celebration of this partnership, TUMI Korea will launch a special initiative 
in-stores and on TUMI.CO.KR; visit online to learn more.

Todd Kline, Chief Commercial Officer of Tottenham Hotspur added, "We are 
delighted to have entered into this partnership with TUMI.  The Club and TUMI 
share the same uncompromising standards and determination to drive excellence; 
we know our athletes and delegation lead active lifestyles and are constantly 
traveling, often carrying their most prized possessions with them while they're 
on the go.  We wanted to equip the team with high quality travel and lifestyle 
products, offering them style and function, so they can keep performing to the 
highest standard."

In keeping with the company's recent sports initiatives, the Tottenham Hotspur 
partnership is the second of its kind where TUMI will serve as an Official 
Partner.  In 2019, TUMI announced a multi-year partnership with F1's McLaren 
Racing Team, as the team's Official Luggage Partner.

TUMI is sold in-stores and online at TUMI.COM.  Visit the site for additional
