How to get your hands on Fortnite Kicks

If you enjoy playing Fortnite and getting involved in Fortnite betting sites, you would have heard all about the latest Kicks release. If you’re intrigued, there are a couple of ways you can get your own pair of shoes, which we will go through next.

Remix Pass (Battle Pass)

To get a pair of Nike Air Jordans in the black, white, and red colors, you must have a Remix Battle Pass. This pass costs 950 V-Bucks and once you have purchased it, you will need to complete the Week Zero and Week One Quests to activate the shoes. If you are looking for a cheaper way of getting your hands on a pair of Kicks, and you plan on purchasing a Battle Pass anyway, this is the perfect option.

Item Shop

If you want a different colour, or don’t want a Battle Pass, you can simply purchase your Kicks directly from the item shop instead. Here’s an overview of the types of Kicks available and when they were released:

👟 Shoes	📆 Release date
Nike Air Foamposite One ‘Galaxy’	First drop: November 21 - 26
Nike Cortez Leather OG	First drop: November 21 - 26

Can you wear these Kicks with all outfits?

The question on everyone’s lips is whether or not you can wear your brand new Kicks with any skin. Well, unfortunately, you can’t as not all skins are compatible. But there is some good news - Epic Games has told us that they will eventually be compatible with at least 500 of the most popular Fortnite skins in the near future.

Furthermore, Epic Games said they are “working hard” to ensure that Kicks will be compatible with 95% of Fortnite skins by Spring 2025. So, if they aren’t compatible with your favorite skins right now, there isn’t too long to wait.

Conclusion: Latest Kick releases are now available

As you can see, the much-anticipated launch of Kicks on Fortnite has finally happened, with many already available in the item shop, or included as a part of the Remix Pass. With the latter you get one free pair of Kicks included, while the item shop lets you pick a custom pair at a cost.

But don’t worry, Kicks are relatively cheap (compared to skins) and can cost as little as 600 V-Bucks, depending on which pair you want. The most expensive pair come in at 1,000 V-Bucks, which isn’t too drastic if you have your eye on a specific pair. Roll on Spring 2025 we say, when your brand new Kicks will be compatible with 95% of Fortnite skins.
