“Garrett Leight California Optical (GLCO) expresses the California lifestyle with contemporary classics and colorful, iconic designs inspired by styles of generations past.
Garrett Leight - son of Larry Leight, founder of iconic, 30-years-old eyewear brand Oliver Peoples - learned the ropes working for his father’s company after attending college in Los Angeles, and while he initially wanted to break into journalism, he came to realize that eyewear was in his blood: in 2009, he opened up an optical store in Venice Beach, then launched his own namesake brand in 2011.
