Cooler Heads

From Inkipedia, the Splatoon wiki
The interior of Cooler Heads as it appears in Splatoon 3

Cooler Heads is a headgear shop in Booyah Base run by Annie and Moe. It appears in Splatoon and Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass.

Description

Cooler Heads sells headgear items that can be purchased with cash, which come with their default primary ability, default number of ability slot(s) (Splatoon) or star power (Splatoon 3), no experience, and empty secondary ability slot(s).

There are six (Splatoon) or nine (Splatoon 3) unique headgear items at a time, which are randomly chosen among eligible items and cycle at midnight according to the system clock (Splatoon) or UTC (Splatoon 3). In Splatoon 3, Cooler Heads shares its daily stock with Naut Couture and Headspace: purchasing an item in one of the headgear shops removes it from all other such shops.

The availability of shop gear by initial star power is based on the player's level. In Splatoon 3, gear items exclusive to the catalog need to be obtained from it before they start appearing in Cooler Heads.

In Splatoon 3, gear items in shops are grouped to (1) returning gear from previous games and (2) gear introduced in Splatoon 3.[2]

In Splatoon, owned headgear cannot be repurchased from Cooler Heads. In Splatoon 3, each gear item can only be bought once per day, but owned items can be repurchased, which gives the following options:

  • Replacing the owned item with its brand new duplicate (with default primary ability, default star power, and empty secondary ability slots), with the same price as buying it for the first time.
  • Upgrading the owned item's star power to the next one, which costs cash depending on its star power.
Next star power Cash Slots XP Multiplier

Players can tilt Right Stick to rotate their Inkling and click Right Stick to try on the highlighted item while pressing A purchases this item. X displays further information about the selected item. Pressing L or ZL allows players to enter Jelly Fresh and pressing R or ZR similarly allows them to enter Ammo Knights, while pressing B takes players back to Inkopolis Plaza.
