The importance of skins and character outfits can never be undermined in a game like Fortnite. While some skins are more popular than others, some of them come to be known as ‘Sweaty.’ The word ‘Sweaty’ is used in gaming communities to refer to players who ‘care’ too much about winning.

Earlier, there wasn’t a massive distinction between ‘sweaty’ and other kinds of players. However, certain skins are now seen as evidence of a player’s high skill. So much so that newbies tend to stay away from characters wearing these particular outfits. In this article, we look at five of the sweatiest skins that you can buy in Fortnite.

1) Renegade Raider

During the early days of Fortnite, The Renegade Raider skin was one of the most common ones in the game. However, as time has gone by and newer players have joined in hordes, the skin has become less common, and is now the symbol of expertise.
