Octoling Boots
The Octoling Boots are a pair of shoes in the Splatoon series.
They are a 2-star item produced by Cuttlegear and come with the primary ability Special Saver.
They are obtained after completing Octo Valley. They cannot be ordered from another player.
Appearance
The Octoling Boots are a pair of very dark brown leather boots modeled after those of Octolings. They have black laces and come up to the wearer's knees. Their thick soles, which are a slightly lighter brown than the rest of the boot, each have a small red symbol resembling an Octoling's tentacle.
Splatoon
Abilities
The Octoling Boots come with Special Saver as the primary ability. As a 2-star item, the Octoling Boots come with two additional slots for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 cash for each slot. Since they are made by the Cuttlegear gear brand, they have equal chances to roll any secondary ability.

Trivia
- Unlike some other gear earned in single player, the Octoling Boots are not called "replicas". This is shared with the other Octoling clothing. This could possibly mean that they are not replicas, but genuine clothing from the Octolings.
- The Octoling Boots, Octoling Armor, and Tentacles Helmet are the only pieces of gear from Splatoon to not return in Splatoon 2, excluding special promotion related gear, such as the SQUID GIRL Gear, the Traditional Gear and the CoroCoro Gear.
- The Octoling Boots and Octoling Armor can be found in the files of Splatoon 2, presumably as a planned Salmon Run gear reward like the Octoleet Goggles, but were never released.
