Fortnite is about to get a major style upgrade with the introduction of Kicks – a brand-new cosmetic feature that lets you customize your favorite characters with cool sneakers. Want to know what they are and how to get them? Keep reading as we break these amazing shoes down for you.
What Are Kicks in Fortnite?
Kicks in Fortnite are basically custom shoes that you can add to your Fortnite outfits. Think of them as another way to make your character stand out in the game, just like you would with skins or emotes. Epic Games is partnering with real-world brands like Nike and Jordan, along with creating their own original Fortnite shoe designs.
And here’s some exciting news – to celebrate the launch, Epic is giving everyone a free ‘Show ‘Em Off’ emote! Just hop into the shop between November 21 at 7 PM ET and December 1 at 7 PM ET to grab it for absolutely free (0 V-Bucks).
How to Get Kicks in Fortnite
1. Through the Remix Pass (Battle Pass)
If you’re looking to get the Air Jordan featuring black, white, and red colors, you’ll need to own the Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix Battle Pass, which costs 950 V-Bucks. Once you have the pass, complete both Week Zero and Week One Quests to unlock these shoes. You can find them on the Dynamo TNTina quest pages. This is the most cost-effective way to get your first pair of Kicks if you already plan on getting the Battle Pass.
2. From the Item Shop
If you prefer more variety or don’t want to get the Battle Pass, you can visit the Item Shop. Starting November 21, you’ll find these releases:
First Drop (November 21-26):
Nike Cortez Leather OG (800 V-Bucks) Nike Air Foamposite One ‘Galaxy’ (1,000 V-Bucks) Nike Shox R4 ‘Comet Red’ (1,000 V-Bucks) Chomp Stompers (600 V-Bucks)
Second Drop (November 22-26):
Air Jordan 3 Retro ‘Palomino’ (800 V-Bucks) Air Jordan 3 ‘Black Cement-Gray’ (1,000 V-Bucks) Air Jordan 11 ‘Black/Gym Red’ (1,000 V-Bucks) Air Jordan 4 Retro ‘Manila’ (1,000 V-Bucks)

Can Fortnite Kicks Be Used With All Outfits?
Right from the start, you’ll be able to use Kicks with over 500 of the most popular Fortnite outfits. And it gets better – Epic Games is working hard to make Kicks compatible with about 95% of all outfits by Spring 2025! We can expect to see more brand collaborations, unique designs, and possibly even special event-themed shoes in the future
Whether you’re a sneakerhead in real life or just want to make your character look more stylish, Kicks offers a fresh way to express yourself in Fortnite. Just remember to complete those Battle Pass quests if you want to grab those Air Jordans!
