I’ve thrown more cats out of rings than I can count in Cat Battles, Cute Malt Games’ sumo-style brawler that has rocketed past 71 million visits on Roblox, and one question keeps popping up: is Gear worth your Coins? Here’s the direct answer. Gear in Cat Battles is purely cosmetic — eight sumo-themed items sold in the Inventory’s Gear tab for 250 to 12,000 Coins — and none of them add stats or special moves.
Abilities handle the fighting perks; Gear handles the flex. The full set costs 24,750 Coins, but you can look like a champion within your first hour if you spend smart. In this November 2026 guide, I break down every Gear item with prices, how to buy and equip them, and the fastest Coin-farming methods I’ve tested myself.
| Fact | Details |
|---|---|
| What Gear does | Purely cosmetic — no stats, no abilities |
| Total items | 8 (as of the Alien Invasion update) |
| Price range | 250 – 12,000 Coins |
| Where to buy | Inventory (bag icon) → Gear tab |
| Full set cost | 24,750 Coins |
| Currency | Coins from bouts, eliminations, quests, and codes |
All Cat Battles Gear and Prices in November 2026
Every Gear item currently in Cat Battles, cross-checked across the official game page and the freshest tracker sites:
| Gear | Rarity | Price | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hachimaki | Common | 250 Coins | A headband for focus |
| Indigo Mawashi | Common | 750 Coins | A deep indigo silk belt |
| Black Mawashi | Common | 750 Coins | The wrestler’s black silk belt |
| Topknot | Rare | 2,000 Coins | An oiled chonmage topknot |
| Gyoji Fan | Rare | 2,000 Coins | The referee’s war fan |
| Crimson Mawashi | Rare | 2,000 Coins | A bold crimson silk belt |
| Kesho-mawashi | Epic | 5,000 Coins | The embroidered ring apron |
| Yokozuna Rope | Legendary | 12,000 Coins | The grand champion’s rope |
The whole set leans into sumo culture, which fits a game where the entire goal is shoving cats out of a ring. Five of the eight items cost 2,000 Coins or less, so a fresh account can look the part almost immediately. The Epic Kesho-mawashi and Legendary Yokozuna Rope are the real status symbols — since no item changes your stats, anyone wearing the 12,000-Coin Yokozuna Rope, named after sumo’s grand champion rank, has genuinely put in the bouts.
One note: Indigo and Black Mawashi are functionally identical, so pick by color, not value. Every purchase is permanent too — there are no rentals or expiring cosmetics here, so Coins spent on Gear stay spent for good.
How to Buy and Equip Gear in Cat Battles?
- Click the bag icon on the left side of your screen to open the Inventory.
- Switch to the Gear tab to see all locked and unlocked items.
- Select the item you want and hit the currency button to buy it, as long as you have enough Coins.
- To equip, select the purchased Gear from the same menu and confirm.
Your cat wears the item instantly in every bout, across Classic, 2 Teams, and 4 Teams modes, and every player in the lobby can see it. If the purchase option is grayed out, you’re short on Coins — farm a few more bouts or redeem a code and try again. Better yet, Gear and Effects use separate slots, so you can run a Gyoji Fan with an Effect active at the same time for maximum flair.
How to Earn Coins Fast in Cat Battles?
Gear doesn’t come cheap, so here’s every earning method I use, ranked by speed:
- Redeem codes first. Seven codes are live in November 2026, worth 1,650 Coins combined — most of the way to an Epic item before your first fight.
- Win bouts and rack up eliminations. Every knockout pays out, and match winners earn the biggest chunks.
- Do Dr. Whiskers’ daily quests. Press E on him in the spawn area; the list refreshes daily.
- Claim daily login rewards. The green Claim button pays increasing Coin amounts through day six.
Quests are the most overlooked method of the bunch — they take minutes, and in my experience most players never bother with them.
| Code | Reward | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 5kWHISKUR | 250 Coins | Active |
| 10MLOAFF | 250 Coins | Active |
| YARNZ2K | 250 Coins | Active |
| 1KCHONKY | 250 Coins | Active |
| NEWGAME | 250 Coins | Active |
| RELEASE | 250 Coins | Active |
| CATS | 150 Coins | Active |
To redeem, click the gear icon to open settings, type a code into the “Enter a code” box, and hit Redeem. RELEASE, NEWGAME, and CATS are confirmed by the developer right on the official game page, so they’re the safest bets. One tip most players miss: the official description also states that crates drop furs, sumo gear, and emotes, so open every crate you earn — you can pull Gear without spending a single Coin at the shop. Freebies stack across Roblox, too, so grab our Rocket Rush codes and Jujutsu Re codes while they’re live.
Best Gear to Buy First in Cat Battles
If you’re building your collection on a budget, here’s my buy order:
- Hachimaki (250) — the cheapest flex, done in minutes.
- Indigo or Black Mawashi (750) — completes the wrestler look.
- Crimson Mawashi (2,000) — the boldest of the Rare belts.
- Kesho-mawashi (5,000) — the Epic ring apron.
- Yokozuna Rope (12,000) — the endgame status symbol.
For perspective, buying all three Common items — the Hachimaki plus both Mawashi belts — costs just 1,750 Coins, which is barely more than the free code haul. That’s a full wrestler outfit for pocket change.
One honest note before you splurge: cosmetics don’t win fights. Nine Lives — widely ranked the best Ability in the game — costs 2,000 Coins, the same as a Rare belt, and it can single-handedly save a 1v1 by reviving you after a knockout. If wins matter more than style, buy Abilities first, then come back for the wardrobe.
