The Oakley Steel Plate XS 3002 eyeglasses bring Oakley’s performance engineering to young faces with a youth-specific fit that goes beyond simply shrinking adult dimensions. Built with C-5 alloy—a proprietary fusion of five metallic compounds—these lightweight metal frames deliver the durability active kids need without the weight they don’t want.
Oakley didn’t just scale down the adult Steel Plate. The XS version features youth-specific geometry to ensure proper optical centering on a child’s face. The 48mm lens width, 15mm bridge, and 130mm temples are proportioned for kids ages 8-14, while adjustable nose pads let you dial in a custom fit as they grow. Spring hinges add flex for comfort and help the frames survive the inevitable bumps of school, sports, and play.
The rectangle shape works well for round or oval face shapes, and the full-rim design provides maximum lens stability—important when you’re adding prescription lenses. Speaking of which: these frames are prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, or progressive lenses, so your optician can fit them with whatever your child’s prescription requires.
The C-5 alloy frame material is where Oakley’s engineering shows. This isn’t standard metal. Five metallic compounds are fused into a single alloy that’s both tough and flexible—it bends to absorb impact and springs back into shape. The result is a wireframe that’s lightweight enough for all-day comfort but strong enough to handle an active lifestyle. The matte finishes (Satin Black and Matte Midnight) resist scratches better than glossy coatings, and the iconic Oakley logo on the temples adds a sporty look kids appreciate.
Available in three colorways—Satin Black, Matte Midnight (blue), and a black/yellow option—the Steel Plate XS gives kids a choice that feels like theirs. The frames ship with a protective case, and Oakley backs them with a manufacturer warranty against defects.
