GOLF WITH FLAVOR - Garrett Leight

Justin Eldridge tees it up at Rancho Park Golf Course in Los Angeles with eyewear visionary Garrett Leight — founder of the globally recognized brand GLCO (Garrett Leight California Optical). Known for his laid-back California style and commitment to quality craftsmanship, Garrett brings the same precision to his golf game that he does to designing some of the most coveted sunglasses in the world.

After a morning on the fairways, we head to John O’Groats, a legendary LA breakfast and brunch spot that’s been serving up comfort food classics for over 30 years. Between bites, Garrett shares stories about growing up in the world of eyewear, building his own brand, and how golf has become a creative outlet away from the shop.

We wrap the day with a private tour of GLCO’s Venice Beach flagship store, where timeless design meets modern California culture. From the inspiration behind his iconic frames to the details that make GLCO stand out in the global eyewear scene, Garrett gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what makes his brand legendary.

This episode blends golf, food, design, and culture into one unforgettable LA day — proof that the game is about more than just what happens on the course.
