What customers say
The PBTFans Vior Keycaps earn high praise for their exceptional quality and striking design. Users consistently love the vibrant, deep saturation of the dye sublimated legends, noting the unique purple, pink, and blue colorway looks fantastic in person.

Generous kitting options further enhance the perceived value by supporting various layouts without extra purchases. While minor legend inconsistencies sometimes appear, they are overshadowed by the overall premium feel and distinctive visual appeal. This set delivers a high quality typing experience and unique flair.
Know before you buy
The PBTFans Vior set uses a standard MX-style cross mount, making them compatible with almost all Cherry MX-style switches. They are designed for ANSI layouts and support both plate-mount and PCB-mount stabilizers.
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. While the material is semi-transparent, the legends are opaque, so your keyboard's backlighting will not illuminate the letters.
These keycaps are made from high-quality ABS, which typically offers a smoother, more refined texture than PBT. While ABS can develop a slight shine over long periods of heavy use, it allows for the vibrant, semi-transparent finish and crisp double-shot legends found in this set.
The Cherry Profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, which many users find reduces wrist strain during extended typing sessions.
Not at all. Because these keycaps are manufactured using a double-shot injection molding process, the legends are physically molded into the keycap itself rather than printed on the surface. They will remain sharp and legible for the entire lifespan of the keycap.
