Every Fortnite cosmetic has a story — a season it debuted, a set it belongs to, a rotation pattern it follows. forlocker tells that story for Fortnite Cosmetic Types Explained — , with clean pages, honest data and no fluff.

Fortnite Cosmetic Types — Overview

The Fortnite locker is a row of slots, and every cosmetic fits exactly one of them. The forlocker catalogue currently holds 16,839 cosmetics across 18 slot types; the 372 pages in this forlocker.click index cover the five slots most people search for — outfits, back blings, pickaxes, gliders and emotes.

Outfits (Skins)

The outfit (the game files say “Character”) is the skin itself — the whole body model. It is the slot that carries the price of a set, the slot that gets styles and the slot people mean when they say “skin”. forlocker lists 3,057 outfits; roughly 51% of them have selectable or unlockable styles (see the styles guide).

Typical shop prices: 800 (historically Uncommon), 1,200 (Rare), 1,500 (Epic and most licensed), 2,000 (Legendary and headline collaborations). Outfits usually arrive with a back bling included.

Examples on forlocker.click: Nitemare Hack, Hazard Agent, Florin, Alpine Ace, D'ugh, Recruit.

Back Blings

Back blings (“Backpack” in the files) are the accessory worn on the back — shields, capes, pets, jetpacks, plushies. Most are bundled free with an outfit and share its set; a minority are sold alone, typically for 300–800 V-Bucks. Some react to the outfit's selected style. forlocker holds 2,711 of them.

Examples on forlocker.click: HUNTR/X Logo, Mimir, Spider-Man Icon, Spike Chamber, Tactical Quiver, Constructor Classic.

Pickaxes (Harvesting Tools)

Pickaxes are the harvesting tool — purely cosmetic, same swing speed and damage for all of them, though some are quieter or have smaller hitbox animations, which competitive players care about. Prices run 500 (Uncommon) to 1,200 (Epic) V-Bucks, with 800 the most common. They are the most frequently rotated slot in the shop. forlocker lists 2,376.

Examples on forlocker.click: Skullcracker, Wavecrest, Reconner's Reckoning, Ochi's Blade, Voxelated, Silver Sledge.

Gliders

Gliders deploy on the drop from the Battle Bus and whenever you redeploy; umbrellas are the free glider awarded for a first win each season and are filed under the same slot. Contrails are the trail effect while skydiving and are a separate, smaller slot (274 in the catalogue). Gliders cost 500–1,500 V-Bucks; forlocker lists 761.

Examples on forlocker.click: Builder's Blueprint 'Brella, Glow Rider, Raven Express, Silver Surfer's Surfboard, Timesweeper, Cold Front.

Emotes & Wraps

Emotes (2,180 in the catalogue) are dances and gestures; licensed Icon Series emotes are the most-returned items in the whole shop. Prices: 200, 500 or 800 V-Bucks. Wraps (1,235) re-skin weapons and vehicles for 300–700. Loading screens (1,151), sprays (1,249), emoticons (898), lobby music (224), kicks (423) and the rest round out the locker; most of those come from Battle Passes and quests rather than the shop.

This forlocker.click index focuses on the five slots that are actually searched for; the remaining slot types are tracked in the forlocker catalogue and may get pages later.

Emote examples on forlocker.click: Listen Up, Tangled Up (Lokee Remix), Droop, No Cure, Around the Clock, LA CHONA.
