In Splatoon 3, a variety of badges can be earned through achievements and playing the game, and up to three of them can be displayed at once on the bottom-right corner of a player's Splashtag.
Badges are awarded for fulfilling certain criteria such as getting 50 Turf War wins, earning 10,000 Grizzco points and defeating DJ Octavio in Return of the Mammalians. Some badges have multiple tiers, such as 4- and 5-star weapon freshness. Some Splatfest-related achievements, such as reaching Ruler rank, also reward badges.
There are currently 387 badges, as of version 3.1.0, and the following tables of badges are arranged in the order that they appear in the Splashtag menu.
Weapon freshness
These badges are obtained for raising a main weapon's freshness to 4 and 5 stars respectively.
If a player accumulates 30 and 100 stars for gear of a specific brand, they recieve a normal and golden badge respectively. Excluded are pieces of gear not featured in shops like the Splatfest Tee or amiibo-branded pieces of gear.
Callie and Marie's badges are the only ones who share an unlock requirement.
It is possible to obtain the Crab-N-Go concessions badges without participating in any battles with a bonus active, as the game only tracks how many tickets have been used.
It is possible to obtain the Murch and Spyke Orders badges without purchasing any of the orders, as the game only tracks how many orders have been sent in.
In a promotional image for badges, the player has 5★ weapon badges for weapons they don't have the 4★ badge in, which is impossible as a 5★ badge's requirement is an extension of the 4★ badge's.
As of Version 2.0.0, it is possible to obtain all 4 badges relating to Tricolor Battles during a single Splatfest, as players are not locked to be attackers or defenders.
During Fresh Season 2023, the Z+F badge could technically be obtained for free as the catalog during the season only included gear from Z+F, with the total star value equating more than 30 stars, the amount of stars needed to get a brand badge.

Notes
↑ 1.01.11.2If a player reached Top 500 or Top 10, they recieve the lower-tier badges too if not acquired before.
↑For only one such victory, the number 1 is not added at the beginning of the badge's description.
↑ 3.03.13.23.3The gold badge currently unobtainable due to respective brand not having enough pieces of gear to reach required stars. Assuming a player would upgrade each piece of gear to 5 stars, it would need 6 for 30 stars and 20 for 100 stars.
↑The golden Spyke badge is currently unobtainable as in order to recieve it, a player has to order gear multiple times. Since Splatoon 3 tracks if a player made at least one order during a day this has to be done for 100 days. As this badge was introduced with Wave 1 of the Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass, it can be obtained at the earliest on 7 June 2023.
↑A Shell-Out Machine reward is considered a Jackpot if the player received a gold or silver capsule. If the reward is downgraded to a bronze capsule since the player already has all currently available Jackpot banners or title pairs, it will not be counted for these badges.
↑ 7.07.1Currently unobtainable, as only a total of 6 jackpot items exist as of Fresh Season 2023.
↑ 8.08.18.28.38.48.5If a player reached Top 20% or Top 5% they recieve the lower-tier badges too if not acquired before.
