Skin Wear Guide
Comprehensive guide to wear conditions
What is Skin Wear?
Skin wear is determined by a float value between 0.00 and 1.00. Lower float values mean better condition, while higher float values mean more visible wear.
Wear and float values are permanent. Using a skin in-game does not change its condition.
CS2 Wear Levels Explained
| Wear | Float range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Factory New | 0.00-0.07 | Pristine condition with minimal to no visible wear |
| Minimal Wear | 0.07-0.15 | Slight wear visible on edges and high-contact areas |
| Field-Tested | 0.15-0.38 | Noticeable wear with scratches and fading |
| Well-Worn | 0.38-0.45 | Heavy wear while still recognizable |
| Battle-Scarred | 0.45-1.00 | Maximum wear and most visible damage |

Frequently Asked Questions
CS2 has 5 wear levels: Factory New (FN) 0.00-0.07, Minimal Wear (MW) 0.07-0.15, Field-Tested (FT) 0.15-0.38, Well-Worn (WW) 0.38-0.45, and Battle-Scarred (BS) 0.45-1.00.
Float value is a number between 0.00 and 1.00 that determines the exact wear condition of a skin. Lower float means better condition. Each skin has a unique float value when unboxed or dropped.
No, skin wear and float values are permanent and cannot change. Using a skin in-game does not affect its condition. The wear is randomly assigned when the skin is first created.
Factory New is typically most valuable, often worth 2-10x more than Battle-Scarred. However, some skins look better worn, and rare float values like 0.00x or 0.99x can command premium prices.
