Fake Contacts

The Fake Contacts are headgear in the Splatoon series.

In Splatoon, they are a 2-star item produced by Tentatek and come with the primary ability Special Charge Up. They can be purchased from Cooler Heads for  2,000.

In Splatoon 2, they are a 2-star item produced by Tentatek and come with the primary ability Special Charge Up. They can be purchased from Headspace for  2,000 or from SplatNet 2 Gear Shop for  4,000.

Appearance

The Fake Contacts do not change the wearer's appearance in any way, effectively allowing players to not wear headgear while still having abilities in the headgear slot. The icon for the Fake Contacts has a black Tentatek logo on each one, but this does not affect their appearance or lack thereof.

Trivia

• Because there is no 3D model, the Fake Contacts are the only gear to use a 2D illustration as their thumbnail.
