Garrett Leight California Optical

Garrett Leight California Optical was created in 2010 and is fueled by a group of young, passionate purveyors of eyewear, dedicated to creating classic designs by combining perfect craftsmanship with timeless aesthetics.

Founded in Venice Beach and designed at their studio in the Arts District of Downtown Los Angeles, GLCO is influenced and inspired by the people, places, and stories of California. Each design incorporates the easy-going philosophy of California culture and is stamped with VC/CA 90291 as a reminder of their Venice roots.

GLCO uses the most exclusive, highest quality materials from the best suppliers in the industry with hundreds of years of experience. Their cured acetates, ranging from deadstock to colorways exclusively designed and produced for GLCO, are sourced from the top acetate houses in Japan, Italy, and China.

Subtle details and technical features are carefully considered for fit, proportion, and comfort. GLCO spends years mastering the intricate details of a frame with their factory partners before releasing it to market.
