Know before you buy
The 142-key kit is designed for broad compatibility, covering standard full-size, TKL, 75%, 65%, and 60% layouts. It includes various shift and bottom row sizes to accommodate most popular enthusiast configurations.
Cherry profile keycaps are shorter and have a sculpted, ergonomic curve that sits lower than the standard OEM profile. Many enthusiasts prefer them for their comfortable typing angle and distinct, slightly deeper sound signature.
Dye-sublimation infuses the ink into the plastic, meaning the legends will not fade or wear off with heavy use. PBT plastic is also resistant to the 'shine' that develops on cheaper ABS keycaps, keeping your set looking matte and textured for years.
These keycaps are compatible with any switch featuring a standard Cherry MX-style cross-stem. This includes most mechanical switches from brands like Gateron, Kailh, Outemu, and Cherry.
No, these are non-backlit keycaps. Because they are made of solid PBT, the light will not shine through the characters, though it will still reflect off the board underneath if you have per-key RGB lighting.
