Appearance
The Squid Nordic is a large bobble hat with ear flaps and a zigzag pattern halfway up, worn with a pair of ski goggles. These goggles' lenses, which are always a semi-transparent blue-violet, are the only part of the hat that does not change color to match that of the wearer's ink; the main portion, pattern, and bobble all do. The rims and band of the goggles also change color, though the former do not always match exactly. On the lower left side of the goggles' lenses and around the length of the band is the Inkling text from the Skalop logo in white.
Very dark ink colors, such as the Dark Blue used in Ranked Battles, can cause the Squid Nordic to become a dark gray.
When displayed in a Locker in Splatoon 3, this gear is placed on a black mannequin head.

Abilities
The Squid Nordic comes with Comeback as the primary ability, which, being exclusive to the main slot of Headgear, prevents the wearer from also having Last-Ditch Effort, Opening Gambit, or Tenacity. As a 3-star item, the Squid Nordic comes with three additional slots for secondary abilities. Since it is made by the Skalop gear brand, it has a higher chance of rolling Quick Respawn and a lower chance of rolling Special Saver to fill its secondary ability slots.
