We design for real life, not just the baggage carousel.

I spent 20 years designing luggage for the world’s biggest brands. On the surface, the bags looked great. But when I watched real people travel—students, families, professionals, explorers—I saw the same frustrations: bags that broke too soon, gear that couldn’t keep up, and features that never seemed to match the realities of daily life.

I started Tesport to change that. Tesport grew out of a simple belief: travel should feel exciting, not frustrating. That’s why we obsess over the details: Stylish aesthetic, expandable shells that flex when plans change, eco-conscious linings that do better for the planet, dividers that double as toiletry kits, RFID protection for peace of mind, and matching pieces that look and work better together. Every detail comes from observing how people really move through the world.

Tesport exists to take care of the details, so you can focus on the adventure.
