Garrett Leight & Guichard Have Created the Most Luxurious Eyeglass Case Available
This item might receive more looks than your outfit.
Garrett Leight California Optical has linked up with French malletier (trunk manufacturer) Guichard for a limited-edition luxury eyeglass case. The two brands’ exclusive carrying case serves as their first collaboration, and is inspired by Guichard’s long line of high-end creations. Founded in 1933, Guichard has a storied history of handmade, high-quality leather cases for accessories, footwear, jewelry and more. “Guichard has always been a hidden gem at the optical shows,” remarks Leight. A personal favorite of Garrett Leight himself, the Guichard case is one of his travel essentials.
“For obvious reasons I take my case whenever I’m traveling, and every time I get asked about it. People want to know what it is and where they can get one. There is clearly a demand for this kind of accessory and it quickly made sense to me that we should create one for GLCO. It simply provides a convenience for our customer without sacrificing style,” explains Leight.
The GLCO and Guichard collaborative case retails for $595 USD and is available in black, brown, gray and orange leather — GLCO stores in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco will also provide custom monogram services. You can learn more about GLCO and Guichard’s new product here.
