Know before you buy
This set is designed for standard ANSI layouts. It includes the necessary modifiers and key sizes to fit most full-size, tenkeyless, and compact mechanical keyboards using that standard.
Yes, these keycaps feature a standard MX-style cross stem. They are compatible with Cherry MX switches and the vast majority of third-party mechanical switches that use the same mounting system.
No. Because these keycaps are manufactured using a double-shot molding process, the legends are molded into the plastic itself rather than printed on the surface. This ensures they will remain crisp and legible for the lifetime of the keycap.
This set uses the Cherry profile, which is widely considered the industry standard for mechanical keyboards. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that is slightly lower than the OEM profile, providing a comfortable typing experience for both gaming and long typing sessions.
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The ABS plastic is opaque, meaning light from your keyboard's LEDs will not pass through the legends.
