FAQs

Are these frames suitable for very young children?

The Steel Plate XS is designed for young faces, generally suitable for school-aged children. Professional fitting is recommended to ensure the best fit for your child's specific age and facial structure.

Can I get prescription lenses put into these frames?

Yes, these are optical frames intended for prescription lenses. You will need to take them to an optician to have your prescription lenses fitted.

What makes the fit specific for youth?

Oakley R&D has specifically designed the dimensions and geometry of the frame to ensure proper centering of the frame and lenses on a smaller, younger facial profile, which differs from adult proportions.

How durable are the Steel Plate XS frames?

They are built with durable materials designed to withstand the active lifestyle of children, though like all eyewear, they can be damaged if subjected to excessive force.

What is the warranty on Oakley frames?

Oakley typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the product packaging or Oakley's official website for specific warranty details applicable to your purchase.

How should I clean these frames and lenses?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel too tight or too loose

Take the frames to an optician for professional adjustment. They can gently bend the temples or nose pads for a customized fit.

Lenses don't seem centered

Ensure the frames are positioned correctly on the child's nose and ears. If the issue persists, consult an optician for fitting verification.

Difficulty inserting prescription lenses

Prescription lenses should be fitted by a professional optician. They have the expertise and tools to ensure proper installation without damaging the frame.
