If you’ve got a young glasses-wearer at home (or you just love keeping up with the latest in children’s eyewear), you’ll want to hear this: STEPPER Eyewear has just expanded their much-loved STEPPER Start collection, making it perfect for kids all the way up to 14 years old! And—big news—they’ve introduced new Titanium frames, too, which means even more comfort and style for active kids and teens.

Why the Update? It’s All About Growing Up (and Seeing Well!)
STEPPER knows that kids’ faces don’t stop changing after early childhood. In fact, our features keep developing well into our teens. That’s why the new STEPPER Start models are designed to fit properly at every stage—not just for comfort, but for healthy vision, too. As Peter Reeve, Managing Director at STEPPER UK, puts it: “Children aren’t just small adults—they need eyewear that grows with them, keeping everything balanced and clinically aligned.”

Titanium: Lightweight, Comfy, and Super Durable

What’s really exciting? The new Titanium frames! Here’s why they’re a game-changer for young glasses wearers:

1. Ultra-lightweight (so no more heavy specs slipping down noses)

2. Hypoallergenic (perfect for sensitive skin)

3. Tough enough for everyday adventures

These new frames join STEPPER’s classic TX5 material, so there’s now an even bigger choice for parents and optical practices looking for something that really works for kids.

Fit, Comfort, and Confidence—Backed by Research

STEPPER Start frames are designed using real facial-fit research (thank you to Dr. Alicia Thompson for her insights!), which means they’re shaped to avoid pressure points and keep lenses right where they should be. Whether your child is running around the playground or focusing in class, these frames are made to support healthy vision and growing confidence.
