How to Find Kicks' Shop

If you speak to Kicks when he comes to visit your island, you can buy shoes, socks, and bags.

Kicks is the only place (aside from the Able Sisters' Tailor Shop) where you can buy bags, so make sure and check his wares when he drops by your island!

How to Upgrade Nook's Cranny

2. Purchase Items from Mabel

After upgrading Nook's Cranny, Mabel will come to visit. Keep purchasing items from her to convince her to set up the Able Sisters' Tailor Shop!

3. Unlock the Able Sisters' Shop

When you've purchased enough items, the Able Sisters' will set up their own Tailor Shop in the island. Pick a location and set up the marker.

4. Wait for Kicks to Visit!

After setting up the Tailor Shop, Kicks will now start visiting your island!

Kicks' Visit Schedule

Kicks will visit at random weekdays every other week and will stay until 5:00AM the next day.

Why Isn't Kicks Showing Up? (Troubleshooting)

Kicks will only visit your island after the Able Sisters Tailor Shop has been opened, so make sure that you have the Able Sisters set up on your island!

He also visits every other week, so you might just need to wait until next week for his visit! If you don't want to wait, you can always time travel!
