STYLE: Garrett Leight Sunglasses – Perfect For Your Weekend Rounds

Not only are golf clothes moving in a more “stylish” direction, I believe sunglasses are too. 

Everyone knows the stereotypical sunglasses worn by golfers around the world – AKA think Zach Johnson. The tight to the face, baseball player screaming, Oakley sunglasses that look, let’s just say awkward. There’s nothing stylish about them. 

If you really want to look good on the course, it’s time to move away from those. Instead, let’s take a look at Garrett Leight…

Garrett Leight – Hampton Sun 

“From our original collection 10 years ago, Hampton Sun continues to be one of our best-selling styles for both men and women, striking the perfect balance of casual and refined. The frame sports a retro-inspired P3 silhouette for a classic look, while contemporary color combinations lend it a fresh, modern feel.”

Two things I love about these: Size and Weight. When you’re playing, the last thing you want is a pair of sunglasses that you can feel on your face. These things are crazy light, as well as being the perfect size. They don’t take up half your face, and really focus the protection to your eye area. 

Product Details:

• Eye 46mm, Bridge 22mm, Temple 145mm
• Cured cellulose acetate frame with stainless steel core wire
• Semi-flat mineral glass lenses with UV protection and AR coating in Semi-Flat Bluesmoke
• Five barrel hinges with real rivets
• Standard GLCO case

The Hampton Sun’s come in 9 different colors, and cost $360. GL offers flexible financing however, allowing their customers to make 4 equal, monthly payments. 

Beach Sun

“Adopt the California lifestyle in Beach Sun, a slightly oversized square-shaped frame that works effortlessly on the sand or on the streets. The sunglasses feature exposed metal hinges and adjustable nose pads, allowing for better fit, and are offered in tortoise, gloss and matte colors paired with CR-39 lenses.”

These are a bit bigger than the Hampton’s, but they’re just as stylish. I love the exposed metal on the stems, as it gives them a retro vibe. If you have a bigger face/head, these would definitely fit better compared to the Hampton’s. 

Product Details

• Eye 49mm, Bridge 22mm, Temple 140mm
• Cured cellulose acetate frame with stainless steel core wire
• CR39 lenses with UV protection and AR coating in G15
• Three barrel hinges with real rivets
• Standard GLCO case

The Beach Sun’s come in 4 different color ways, and are priced at $360. Again, these are available with the 4 month financing.
