Garrett Leight Sustainability Actions

Launched GREEN Collection

In February 2022, we launched our first GREEN Collection with the introduction of an innovative, sustainable acetate that is bio-based and biodegradable derived from vegetable starch and bioethanol. By utilizing this formula consisting of mostly composed materials from renewable sources, we limit our use of fossil fuels and reduce our emissions of greenhouse gases.

Used recycled paper wrapper

When we spoke with our retail partners, they told us that most frame boxes immediately went into the trash. This seemed like a real waste of trees — so we came up with a recycled paper wrapper. It’s been 10 years and we have shipped hundreds of thousands of these around the world.

Extended eyewear life

Each of our retail locations has a fully outfitted lab and optometric technician to provide rapid on-site crafting and eyewear restoration. Keeping your eyewear fresh by adjusting frames, balancing temples, tightening screws, or simply cleaning and sanitizing extends the life of your frames.
