Ever see a Fortnite skin that just feels off? With so many unique skins to choose from, stinkers are sure to pop up now and again.
The skins on this are not only bad, they are enough to make a person visibly cringe. While there are certainly more cringe-worthy skins in Fortnite, these are the five worst offenders, with "offend" being the keyword.

Last Seen: January 3rd, 2021
Released: December 23rd, 2018
Growing up watching David the Gnome makes Grimbles all the more creepy, as the ceramic nightmare clone of poor David smiles along, knowing the atrocities it has commited. At least at 1,200 V-Bucks, it is not as hard to swallow as those skins further up the list.
#4 - Dolph
Last Seen: January 3rd, 2021
Released: December 24th, 2019
Dolph is just...wrong. It could be the three fingers. It could be the creepy smile on its face. It could be that it is basically a default male body with three fingers and a creepy smile on its face. There is nothing festive about this 1,200 V-Buck skin.
#3 - Tender Defender
Last Seen: November 23rd, 2018
Released: December 29th, 2020
If a muscular man with thick thighs dressed up like a chicken is not cringy, then what is? Part of the Fowl Play set, Tender Defender costs 1,500 V-Bucks and is equal parts cringe and fantastic.
#2 - Flytrap
Last Seen: January 6th, 2021
Released: June 10th, 2018
There is something wrong with the entire Fortnite Flytrap set. The skin has an odd facial expression that is just uncomfortable. Too uncomfortable for 2,000 V-Bucks. Come on, Fortnite. Someone call Chris Hansen.
#1 - Moisty Merman
Last Seen: January 22nd, 2021
Released: May 25th, 2018
DO NOT USE THE WORD MOIST. Honestly, this skin would not be nearly cringy if it did not have the word "moist" in the name. It just makes the whole skin feel nasty. The worst part? Fortnite charges 2,000 V-Bucks for this one.
