Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard that uses Cherry MX style switches, which is the standard for most mechanical keyboards. With 177 keys in the Base Kit, they are designed to fit a wide variety of layouts, including full-size, TKL, and compact configurations.
The Base Kit includes the standard set of keys needed to cover your keyboard, manufactured using durable doubleshot ABS. The Novelties Kit provides 21 additional accent keys with unique designs, which are created using UV printing for high visual detail.
The Cherry profile is widely favored for its comfortable, ergonomic shape and slightly lower height compared to OEM profiles. It is designed to reduce finger fatigue, making it an excellent choice for both long typing sessions and gaming.
The Base Kit uses doubleshot ABS, meaning the legends are molded into the plastic and will never fade or wear off. The Novelties Kit uses UV printing, which offers vibrant, crisp designs that are durable for standard use.
A 1.6mm thickness is considered quite robust for keycaps, providing a solid, premium feel under your fingertips. This thickness helps produce a deeper, more satisfying sound profile compared to thinner keycaps.
