Beyond cosmetic appeal, many outfit pieces and accessories in SSX 3 offer subtle but helpful stat bonuses. These can be purchased from the 'Shop' or unlocked by completing specific challenges and collecting items. Outfits are broken down into categories:
- Tops: Jackets, hoodies, shirts.
- Bottoms: Pants, shorts.
- Outerwear: Overalls, full suits.
- Goggles/Eyewear: Goggles, sunglasses.
- Headwear: Helmets, beanies.
- Gloves: Various styles of gloves.
Stat Bonuses: Look for small '+' icons next to stats when browsing items. A jacket might offer a '+1 Speed' bonus, while a pair of goggles could give '+1 Trick'. While individual items might seem minor, combining several pieces with complementary bonuses can significantly enhance your rider's performance. Always check the item description for any hidden perks or stat boosts before buying.
