Product Overview
The Kenneth Cole REACTION Diamond Tower Collection 20-Inch Checked Luggage in Lavender is a thoughtfully engineered travel essential that blends designer aesthetics with practical functionality. Crafted for the modern traveler who values both style and substance, this suitcase features a high-strength hardside construction with a distinctive diamond-textured ABS exterior. The luxurious lavender finish adds a touch of elegance, while the embossed diamond pattern enhances durability and visual appeal. Lightweight yet resilient, this luggage helps you stay within strict airline weight limits—avoiding costly excess baggage fees—while offering reliable protection for your belongings.
What truly sets the Diamond Tower Collection apart is its expandable design, allowing the main compartment to extend an additional 2 inches via a discreet side zipper.

Paired with smooth-rolling, multi-directional 8-wheel spinners, the bag glides effortlessly across airport carpets, hotel floors, and rough pavement, reducing strain on your arms and shoulders during transit.
