Place the cut potatoes into a large bowl of cold water and soak for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the dried potatoes with vegetable oil until evenly coated.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create the Wingstop-style seasoning.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the oiled fries and toss to coat evenly.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Cook the fries for 10 minutes, then shake the basket or use tongs to turn the fries for even cooking.
Continue cooking for an additional 8-10 minutes or until fries are golden brown and crispy.
Remove fries from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
