The famous Fortnite leaker, has unveiled more Kicks that are going to be the future cosmetic shoes in the shop. The leak, with the accompanying images of some new models, has made the players instantly discuss the new virtual sneakers and clogs. Also, this leak gives the players a glimpse of what they might be able to buy with their V-Bucks soon.
Let’s go ahead to start. ShiinaBR posted a picture and the Fortnite fashion police were FLOORED AND CANNOT STOP RESPONDING TO THE CALL. There is a wide selection of shoes, some attractive, and there are others that are just regular, you know how it goes. The first one to get attention?? Black Crocs. Yes, you got it right, BLACK CROCS ARE HERE, AND IT’S TIME ABOUT TIME 🔥 as the player, Purple💜Starz, literally screamed. However, the voice of the player ‘moonlight’ saying just “finally black crocs yaaaayyyy” is much louder anyway. Thus, the company is granting wishes of the people one virtual shoe at a time.
Meanwhile, black Crocs are not everyone’s pick. User pxt has just shouted “crocs crocs crocs crocs crocs,” which sounded… menacing? And the character GOTHIC has already issued a long missive: “We need more vans and converse, we are already sick of the worst Jordans and Nikes, and the crocs must also be banned.” The conflict has begun, my friend. A section of gamers is just tired of the traditional sneaker shapes, and there is ridicule directed at shoes. Heinz Nipple went on to slam it for quite some time while reminiscing when Kicks were launched and praying for over-the-knee boots, sandals, high heels… “anything cool at all.” Hans Hansberger agreed, saying most are just “meh,” with only some big boots that cost like a thousand V-Bucks being the exception. So, the demand for variety is clear and loud.
Then, the other shoe styles that were leaked came up. Some of them indeed do look like simple sneakers; a user called snevtin sees “ripoffs of Yeezys” whereas Rose/The Reaper is wondering about the third ones as they say “almost remind me of the fox clan.” And of course, the eternal asking for galaxy shoes is still there. Captain Bobo is demanding, “Still no Galaxy shoes smh.” The user ivorycricket_ is begging for the past styles to come back: “can they please bring some of the old ones back? i been waiting for those black and red boots and black/bluish ones from a long long time ago.” And TheDukeOfSteel is forthright: “I just want some black cons.” There has been an extensive debate akin to a shop in the comments due to these different opinions.
Currently, it is an exciting topic and there are people who are HYPED. VixinityFF announced; “W KICKS 100% BUYING THANK U FORTNITE” with a fire emoji. Flaqkz said, “Buying the black crocs.” Soulaaaan went into details, “Black crocs will be mine.” So, this means the ringing of the cash register at Epic’s will be going on. On the contrary, there are users like Larissa1113824 who checked the new shoes and said, “my money is safe.” And Red gave us a warning: “Bro who is buying these shoes. Y’all need to STOP immediately.” This is the duality of man, right here in a Fortnite leak.
There’s even some strange meta commentary. 2Worlds – Athletic VR FPS philosophized, “It is mocking how AI could not foresee these. Picture an LLM developer a” which is… a thought. And H40K_ over here worrying about the collab timing: “What about Wicked x Fortnite? Shouldn’t the collabs come in January?” Meanwhile, KiDS0N has a very specific real-world sneakerhead need: “I need the Travis Scott 1s to drop so I can use them for my other skins smh.” The priorities are quite scattered but it’s chaotic beauty.
The amusing part is that the limits of the system imposed on the community’s creativity. RockyVegaTV is asking “some good, black combat boots so I can turn Ryu into beardy Rambo.” That’s a mood. But it highlights the player want Kicks to complete a character fantasy and not just another inconspicuous sneaker. And the question of value comes up too, with vanillobotomy agreeing that shoes like Converse should be sold one time with color customizing, not separate items for every color. That’s why they keep an eye on their V-Buck budgets!
It’s just another day in the Fortnite ecosystem where players on PlayStation and Xbox are always eager for new content.
