Garrett Leight California Optical
About
Garrett Leight California Optical (commonly known as GLCO) is an independent eyewear brand founded in 2010, deeply rooted in the laid‑back elegance of Venice Beach and Southern California culture.
Founded in Venice Beach and designed at our 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 our Venice roots.
GLCO is dedicated to reinvention. We look at classic shapes through a modern lens and redefine iconic silhouettes with contemporary fashions. Trendless and timeless, they never go out of style.
GLCO uses the most exclusive, highest quality materials from the best suppliers in the industry with hundreds of years of experience. Our cured acetates, ranging from deadstock to colorways exclusively designed and produced for GLCO, are sourced from the top acetate houses around the world.
