What customers say
The GMK Orange Boi keycap set is highly praised for its premium quality and striking design. Customers consistently appreciate the thick, doubleshot ABS construction, which delivers a satisfying, deep sound profile and a substantial feel.

Know before you buy
The cream-colored elements on the novelty keys are doubleshot, meaning the legend is molded into the plastic for long-term durability. The pastel pink accents are UV printed, which allows for more intricate detail but requires slightly more care to maintain the finish over time.
The Base kit is designed to cover most standard layouts, including full-size, TKL, and 65% boards. If you have a non-standard layout or prefer specific aesthetic accents, you may want to add the Novelties or Spacebars kits.
This set was co-designed by andromache and Typo.mk as a tribute to orange cats, specifically a cat named Richard. The color palette reflects the warm, playful aesthetic associated with ginger cats.
These keycaps feature a standard MX-style stem, making them compatible with the vast majority of mechanical switches on the market, including Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh.
