Fortnite Kicks are the new type of cosmetic item that was teased at the start of the season and were officially added in the v32.10 Fortnite patch. If you weren’t aware, Kicks are simply shoes that let you swap out your skin’s default footwear with custom designs, some based on real-world shoe designs, and others based on original designs from the Epic team.

As for the v32.11 Fortnite update you can now buy Kicks in the item shop and equip any you already have. They cost between 600 and 1,000 V-Bucks depending on their tier, although anyone who bought the Fortnite Remix Battle Pass will have a free pair in their inventories already. There are currently just over 400 compatible skins, but the team at Epic is working on it and has promised to make 95% of all skins compatible with Kicks by some time in 2025.
