Gear

"Dress your Inkling in sweet gear, complete with bonus abilities that boost your stats."

- Splatoon's official website

Gear is the combined form of headgear, clothing, and shoes that Inklings can wear.

Three Shops in Inkopolis Plaza sell a respective type of gear:
 * Annie in Cooler Heads sells headgear.
 * Jelonzo in Jelly Fresh sells clothes.
 * Crusty Sean in Shrimp Kicks sells shoes.

Each gear gives an Inkling or their weapons a boost. The gear has 1-3 stars indicating the amount of extra ability slots that gear has past its main ability. Gear also has a Brand that can have an effect on which extra abilities are likely to be assigned.

Experience Table
To unlock extra abilities on gear, a certain amount of experience must be earned while wearing that piece. The exact amounts are detailed in the table below: * This slot must be purchased from Spyke for a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 Gold.
