Whether it’s a quick mini-break or a digital nomad permanently on a roll, people are itching to hop on the nearest transport that will let them go wherever they weren’t before.
The term “RevengeTravel” has been spoken of so often that you get visions of everyone’s knuckles clutching their pieces of luggage like weapons. The numbers bear it out, everyone wants to go somewhere despite airport hassles, traffic, and other obstacles. The journey and destination are always worth it. Your luggage should be the sturdy companion you almost never think twice about, it just follows your vibe.
Do you want luggage you forget? One that works so well you hardly remember it’s there, or do you want luggage you remember, where you know it’s yours just as it peaks from the carousel? With TUNKR you get both, sleek, hip, cool designs and colors backed by sturdy construction and framework.
TUNKR was created by a young group of investors who know what’s good for the young adventurous traveler because they do the same things and want the same qualities in gear: Toughness. Utility. Necessity. Kingly. Reliability.
TUNKR walks the talk as their luggage has primary features that travelers should consider non-negotiables: The REINFORCED ALUMINUM TROLLEY is over-engineered to handle capacity a little over the limit. It is strategically bent aluminum to form unique shapes that has resistance when heavy force is applied.
ANTI-THEFT ZIPPERS are comprised of a double zipper, a zipper on the inside and the outside, and they are called such because the zippers cannot be penetrated by sharp objects. If the outer zipper is punctured, it will not penetrate the second zipper.
The BOTTOM HANDLE is strategically placed to easily pull the luggage from all sides, thus encouraging people to grab on the handle and not the wheels. The handle at the bottom is especially useful for a quick grab.
TUNKR WHEELS are special silent and durable wheels. The last thing you want when traveling is to call attention to how noisy your luggage is, and there is A LOT of wheeling your trunk around.
The PADDED INTERIOR makes travel with fragile belongings safer. The additional soft pads work similarly to the paddings in cars, just for that extra touch of luxury.
The luggage also comes with a DETACHABLE INTERIOR ORGANIZER, which is a trademark of the company and is usually used for toiletries such as soap, toothbrush and paste, shampoo, shaver, etc. It is also used as a compressor inside the luggage.
You may have seen travel bags that advertise the TSA LOCK®, which is a global security system that allows passengers to lock their luggage while also allowing security authorities to inspect them without damage. The TSA was named for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, which was the first security agency to use the system, so if there’s anything that’s secure while also allowing travelers need flexibility, this is the standard.
TUNKR bags also have a KISSING LOCK (rings in the zipper slider that interlock to allow attachments such as padlocks to be locked for extra protection).
Whether you travel by land, air, or sea, whatever elements you encounter, you can be assured TUNKR is built for it. It takes a lot of time to travel from one place to another, your luggage should be a great traveling buddy.
Lifestyle
You also don’t just need a suitcase/trunk for travel, there are many instances in daily life where it is necessary. People do use luggage as part of their daily lives like running errands such as groceries, shopping, carrying equipment, and many more. It is basically a chest/closet/ bunker on wheels!
TUNKR may be a plucky young brand with a funky and quirky tone but is backed by experience. The people behind TUNKR come from three generations of luggage expertise in the industry. They have particularly excelled in the aftermarket service. They think of the customer long after the travelers have gone on and back on their journeys.
Intimate and Sentimental
TUNKR recognizes that luggage is intimate, sentimental, and customizable. Seen in movies and other pop culture moments, luggage is the visual shorthand that bears the marks of the places you’ve been and the things you’ve experienced. Luggage is a fashion statement, but TUNKR doesn’t treat it as a fad or a trend, it intends to be in your life in the long term.
And like the truly fashionable, TUNKR doesn’t want you to treat your luggage as a museum piece, where its preciousness can exceed its usefulness, the brand expects travelers and customers to personalize it to their heart’s content, and it will be with them on that journey every step of the way.
The TUNKR Technical Sidebar: How quality luggage can be as light as a feather but as strong as a tank.
Luggage may look the same to many people, but just like things you invest in, so they last a long time, it is what is under the hood that counts. For those that want to get into the nitty-gritty of what makes good luggage, this is what a TUNKR is made of.
The basic material is something called Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene or ABS plastic. It is an opaque thermoplastic. It is an amorphous polymer comprised of three monomers, acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene.
Top material:
Polycarbonate (PC) Polycarbonate is an extremely tough polyester compound, while heavier than polypropylene and ABS suitcase, polycarbonate bags are flexible and highly resistant to cracks.
Mid material:
Polypropylene, or polypropene, is also a type of thermoplastic polymer and the lightest of all thermoplastic products, making it an ideal material for any lightweight luggage range. Polypropylene is also very resilient (though not as much as polycarbonate). This material is most sought after due to its flexible features that allow luggage to be folded.
Aluminum metal:
Aluminum luggage is more durable than polycarbonate or soft-sided luggage, though it’s still prone to scratches and dents. It’s also more secure, as aluminum suitcases typically close via latches rather than zippers.
