The Polo Prep 8534 Eyeglasses bring Ralph Lauren's preppy American style to kids' eyewear with durable acetate frames built to handle school days, playtime, and everything in between. Designed specifically for children, these rectangle frames feature a classic shape with a modern twist: contrasting inner colors that add personality without sacrificing the clean, sporty look Polo is known for.
Built for Active Kids
These frames are made from high-quality acetate plastic—a material chosen for its durability and flexibility. The full-rim construction keeps lenses secure, while the 16mm bridge and 130mm temples provide a comfortable, stable fit for school-age children. Available in two lens widths (46mm and 48mm), the 8534 fits a range of face sizes, typically suiting kids ages 6 to 12. The signature polo player logo sits on each temple, a subtle nod to the brand's heritage.
Polo Prep frames are prescription-ready, compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. Whether your child needs glasses for reading, distance, or all-day wear, these frames can accommodate their prescription. The acetate material is lightweight enough for all-day comfort but tough enough to survive the occasional drop or toss into a backpack.
Style That Kids Actually Want to Wear
The Polo Prep collection was created to capture what the brand calls "genuine, energetic and cool"—eyewear that kids will actually be excited to put on. The 8534 comes in three color options: classic Black with red accents, sporty Blue with contrasting temples, and versatile Havana tortoise with warm tones. Each colorway features the brand's signature contrasting inner frame color, a design detail that makes these frames feel special without being over-the-top.
Parents appreciate the balance of style and practicality. These aren't flimsy fashion frames—they're designed to last through a school year (or more) while still looking sharp. The rectangle shape is universally flattering and works well for oval, round, and heart-shaped faces. And because they're Polo Prep, they pair just as easily with a school uniform as they do with weekend casual wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age range do the Polo Prep 8534 Eyeglasses fit?
The Polo Prep 8534 is designed for school-age children, typically ages 6-12. The 46mm lens width generally fits younger or smaller-faced children (ages 6-9), while the 48mm size works for older kids or those with wider faces (ages 9-12). Frame fit depends on individual head size, so measuring your child's current glasses or face width is the best way to ensure a proper fit.
Are the Polo Prep 8534 frames prescription-ready?
Yes, the Polo Prep 8534 Eyeglasses are fully prescription-ready. These frames come with demo lenses that need to be replaced with your child's prescription lenses. They're compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses, making them suitable for a wide range of vision correction needs.
How durable are Polo Prep eyeglasses for active kids?
Polo Prep frames are built with durability in mind, using high-quality acetate plastic that can withstand the wear and tear of daily use by children. The brand emphasizes build quality to ensure frames can handle drops and falls. The full-rim construction provides additional lens security, and the acetate material is both flexible and impact-resistant, making these frames a practical choice for active kids.
What's the difference between the 46mm and 48mm sizes?
The numbers refer to the lens width in millimeters. The 46mm size (46-16-130) has a smaller lens width and is better suited for younger children or those with narrower faces. The 48mm size (48-16-130) offers a slightly wider lens for older kids or those with broader faces. Both sizes share the same 16mm bridge width and 130mm temple length.
Do these frames come with a case and cleaning cloth?
Yes, authentic Polo Prep eyeglasses typically come with a branded case and cleaning cloth to protect and maintain your frames. When purchased from authorized retailers like Designer Optics, you'll receive the complete package with all manufacturer-included accessories.
Are Polo Prep frames suitable for sports or physical activities?
While Polo Prep 8534 frames are durable enough for everyday school activities and play, they're not specifically designed as sports eyewear. For high-impact sports, consider adding a sports strap to keep them secure, or look into dedicated sports frames. However, these frames are built to handle the normal bumps and activity of an active child's daily routine.

Polo Prep 8534 vs PP8518: Which Rectangle Frame Is Right for Your Child?
Both the Polo Prep 8534 and PP8518 are popular rectangle frames from the Polo Prep kids' collection, and they share the same durable acetate construction and preppy aesthetic. The main differences come down to sizing options and color variety.
Size Flexibility: The PP8518 offers three lens widths (44mm, 46mm, 48mm), while the 8534 comes in two sizes (46mm, 48mm). If you have a younger child (ages 4-6) or one with a particularly small face, the PP8518's 44mm option might be the better choice. For most school-age kids (6-12), both frames' 46mm and 48mm sizes will work well.
Style Details: The 8534 features more pronounced contrasting inner colors—the blue version has white and red accents, and the black version has red inner temples. The PP8518 takes a slightly more subdued approach with its color blocking. Both feature the signature polo player logo on the temples.
Our Recommendation: Choose the Polo Prep 8534 if you want bolder color contrast and your child fits the 46mm or 48mm size. The design details make these frames stand out a bit more, and kids often appreciate the sportier look. Go with the PP8518 if you need the smaller 44mm size, want more color options to choose from, or prefer a slightly more understated look. Either way, you're getting the same quality construction and Polo Prep durability that parents trust.
