There is always a risk when it comes to traveling with all of your [valuable ID cards and passport](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/passport-luggage) in your bag, but with the [Tumi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kith-for-tumi) ID Lock collection, you won't have to worry quite so much.

The new TICON collection of Tumi bags are outfitted with a little red pocket that incorporates metal threads into its linen lining, which is called the ID Lock. Any cards and other valuable items that have [RFID chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mvst-rfidblocking-alcantara-slim-wallet) with your personal information on them, can be stowed away in this pocket and no identity thieves will be able to send signals to swipe that info.

Tumi ID Lock collection is not only smart, it also looks amazing with a stylishly quilted panel and gorgeous leather features that go with anything.
