Heirloom Shardsare consumable items that can be redeemed towards very rare "Heirloom" items with bespoke dialogue and banner options, as well as designs that mirror the legend that they were created for. These Heirloom Shards Are extremely rare, as well as extremely cool. Back in the old days of Apex Legends, Heirlooms were only obtainable in two different ways, hope for the less than 1% chance to get the Apex Pack with the heirloom in it. That roughly translates to about 1 in 500 packs, and if you are a "Free to Play" player, this is really difficult, as packs are only rewarded every two level-ups, and to add salt to the wound, it was a randomized Heirloom. As of today, you use Heirloom Shards to buy a Specific Heirloom, but the odds are even if you are an lv 500 free to play player, you don't have an heirloom yet. As it is still a 1 to 500 chance.
