Why the Kinney Frame Belongs on Abbot Kinney

Garrett Leight Kinney sunglasses

Garrett Leight has made California optical in Venice since 2009, with its flagship at 1522 Abbot Kinney. The Kinney is the frame that carries the street’s name, and it seemed only right to carry it at 1733.

It’s a classic shape with enough presence for coffee, late lunch, and whatever comes after. Not loud. Not shy. The kind of sunglasses you stop noticing you’re wearing, which is the point.

We’re carrying a small selection of Garrett Leight for the season. Come try them on in the room — a mirror and a walk down the boulevard will tell you more than any product photo.
