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.
A Legacy of Vision. A Dialogue Between Generations.
Born from a rare collaboration between father and son—Larry and Garrett Leight—Mr. Leight is where heritage and innovation meet. This is a brand shaped by time, connection, and the lifelong pursuit of impeccable design.
Melding Larry’s decades of mastery as the founder of Oliver Peoples with Garrett’s contemporary vision through Garrett Leight California Optical, Mr. Leight represents more than just eyewear—it is the convergence of two worlds. One rooted in time-honoured craftsmanship, the other propelled by modern sensibility.
Each frame is a work of precision and beauty, handcrafted from the most exclusive materials sourced from renowned acetate houses in Japan, Italy, and China. Whether drawn from archival deadstock or designed uniquely for the brand, every element—from mineral glass lenses to layered mirror coatings—is selected for clarity, longevity, and artistry.
Mr. Leight is not just about seeing clearly—it’s about seeing deeply. About honouring the past while shaping what’s next.
