Know before you buy
The OSA profile combines the spherical top of a classic SA keycap with the height and ergonomic sculpting of an OEM profile. This creates a comfortable, slightly taller typing experience that feels natural and helps guide your fingers toward the center of each key.
With 187 keys included, this set is designed to be highly versatile. It supports most standard mechanical layouts, including 60%, 65%, 75%, TKL, and full-size boards, as well as various non-standard bottom rows.
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The double-shot legends are solid, meaning your keyboard's backlight will not illuminate the letters, though it may still create an underglow effect around the edges of the keys.
PBT is a denser, more durable plastic that resists the oily shine that often develops on ABS keycaps over time. These keycaps provide a textured, matte finish that maintains its appearance and feel even after heavy daily use.
Double-shot molding involves injecting two layers of plastic to form the keycap and the legend separately. This ensures that the characters will never fade or wear off, as they are physically part of the keycap structure rather than just printed on the surface.
