^You want a whole lot of Crit on Garen, and because of its active and it builds from a gp5, Youmuu's Ghostblade is almost always a good option. That and it gives CDR, which Garen likes, as well as some AD. Garen gets almost 100% of his required tankiness from his W, so building Atmog's isn't too necessary, as it turns you into target with lots of HP.

Ghostblade, Mercury's Treads, Randuin's Omen/Thornmail [Depending on how much CC and escapes the enemy team has. Usually Omen is the better choice.], Infinity Edge, Maw of Malmortimus, Optional <- somewhat solid build, as it doesn't rely on Atmog's.
