Shrimp Kicks

Shrimp Kicks is a shoe shop in Booyah Base. It appears in Splatoon, where it is run by Crusty Sean, and in Splatoon 3 as part of the Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass, where it is run instead by Fred Crumbs.
Description
Shrimp Kicks sells shoes 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 shoe 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, Shrimp Kicks shares its daily stock with Crush Station and Shella Fresh: purchasing an item in one of the shoe 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 Shrimp Kicks.

In Splatoon, owned shoes cannot be repurchased from Shrimp Kicks. 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.
