Know before you buy
The WS PBT Mizu set is specifically color-matched to the original GMK Mizu. While the colors are designed to be identical, these keycaps are made from PBT plastic rather than ABS, offering a different, more textured feel and increased resistance to shine over time.
The base kit uses a double-shot molding process, which ensures the legends will never fade. The novelties use UV printing, which allows for more intricate designs but may show signs of wear over a longer period compared to the double-shot base keys.
The 1.6mm thickness provides a solid, substantial feel that produces a deeper sound profile compared to thinner keycaps. Because they are made of PBT, they offer a slightly textured surface that many typists prefer for grip and longevity.
The base kit includes 176 keys, providing broad compatibility for most standard mechanical keyboard layouts. The Cherry profile is a popular, ergonomic choice that works well with the vast majority of MX-style switches.
The deskmats are built for durability with anti-fray stitched edges and a 4mm thickness for added comfort. The rubberized anti-slip base ensures the mat stays firmly in place during intense typing or gaming sessions.
