Know before you buy
This 138-key set is designed for broad ISO compatibility, including UK, German, French, Spanish, Swiss, and Nordic layouts. It includes the necessary keys to accommodate these regional variations.
These keycaps are compatible with any mechanical keyboard that uses MX-style stems, which are the industry standard for most mechanical switches, including Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh.
The Cherry profile is shorter than the standard OEM profile and features a sculpted, ergonomic shape. Many enthusiasts prefer it for its comfortable, low-profile feel that reduces finger fatigue during long typing sessions.
No, the legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which infuses the ink directly into the PBT plastic. This makes them highly resistant to fading, shine, and wear compared to standard pad-printed keycaps.
No, these keycaps are made from solid PBT plastic and are not designed to be shine-through. The legends will not illuminate if your keyboard has RGB backlighting.
These keycaps are 1.5mm thick. This thickness provides a solid, premium feel and a deeper, more satisfying sound profile when typing compared to thinner stock keycaps.
