In Animal Crossing: City Folk, Kicks appears on the steps of a run-down building in the city to the right of the auction house. He can shine the player's shoes for 500 Bells, changing the color of the shoes. He asks the player how they want to match their shoe color to their current appearance: "Go by color" or "Match my style." After the player has their shoes shined 16 times, Kicks allows them to choose shoe types of the opposite gender.

Kicks's services are available from 9 AM to 9 PM and he does not appear when it is raining or snowing.

In New Leaf

Kicks

Description NTSC-U: Crikey! This shoeshine has really come up in the world. He used to work in a faraway city, but now he runs a shoe store with an impressive collection of shoes to choose from. And you can tell from that sharp-looking hat he's wearing that his is a style you can trust.

PAL: Hello, chum! This friendly shoe shop owner used to shine shoes in the city, but now he's managed to save up enough money for his own little shop in town. His outfit might make him look like he sweeps chimneys for a living, but don't worry - you definitely won't find any soot on his wares, awright?
