Know before you buy
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The Dye-sub PBT material is opaque, so they will block any backlight from passing through the legends.
Cherry profile keycaps are slightly shorter and have a more sculpted, ergonomic shape than standard OEM caps. Many enthusiasts prefer them for their comfortable, consistent feel during long typing sessions.
Because they are crafted using the dye-sublimation process, the ink is infused directly into the plastic. This makes the legends highly resistant to fading and wear, even with heavy daily use.
This set is designed for standard mechanical keyboard layouts with MX-style stems. We recommend checking your keyboard's bottom row and key sizes to ensure they match the standard layout provided in this kit.
The PBT material has a slightly textured, matte finish that provides a premium, non-slip feel. It is significantly more durable and resistant to the 'shine' that develops on cheaper ABS plastic keycaps over time.
