Let us introduce you to one of the hottest brands that currently graces our displays in the optical boutique at Merivale Vision Care: Garrett Leight.

If you love clean lines, classic colours and retro shapes with a modern take then Garrett Leight is the brand for you. Not familiar with Garrett Leight? Read on.  

Garrett Leight launched Garrett Leight California Optical (GLCO) in 2010 because he was hugely inspired by both the culture and creativity of his Venice Beach hometown and his father, the founder and creative director of the famous eyewear brand Oliver Peoples. Garrett sought to blend his knowledge and inspiration from family and community to create a cult classic brand that would impact the eyewear industry in a new and innovative way.

Garrett Leight as a brand classifies itself as hyper-Californian with classically tailored styling. Their eyewear collections are manufactured using premium materials and suppliers from around the globe. Garrett Leight has created a global community of loyal wearers and celebrities who rarely deviate from wearing their pieces and has established themselves as authentic and an aspirational leader in the eyewear industry. They have achieved this by highlighting and featuring creative Los Angeles influencers from film, fashion, art, music, and sport through original content alongside their eyewear collection.

Garrett Leight’s unmistakable cool-kid style, unique family legacy story, exclusive distribution, celebrity clientele, and world-class content make them such a unique line to wear. Their goal is to continue the family legacy in the world of eyewear and fabricate the very best in the world for the coolest consumers on the planet.  We offer Garrett Leight frames for everyone. We highly recommend their iconic Brooks model for a modern vintage and edgy cool frame. This frame works exceptionally well as a pair of prescription sunglasses. With several neutral colorways this frame, whose shape is a nod to the iconic wayfarer, will stand the test of time and never go out of style.

We also love the Winward for a timeless classic round frame that suits many in several colour options. Garrett Leight also offers an exclusive collection of luxury frames called Mr. Leight that can be viewed at our sister location Wellington Vision Care. Ready to get your cool on in this heat?
