Know before you buy
These keycaps are specifically designed for Alice-layout keyboards. While they use a standard MX-style stem mount, the specific key sizes and layout requirements of an Alice board mean they may not fit standard rectangular keyboard layouts.
No, the legends are created using a dye-sublimation process. This embeds the ink into the PBT plastic, making them permanent and resistant to the wear typically seen with printed keycaps.
The 1.7mm wall thickness is thicker than standard keycaps, which helps produce a deeper, more resonant sound profile. It also provides a sturdier, more premium feel under your fingertips while typing.
These keycaps are not shine-through. Because they are made from opaque PBT plastic, they will block any light emitted from your keyboard's LEDs.
The matte finish provides a subtle, dry texture that offers better grip than smooth or glossy keycaps. This helps prevent slipping during long typing sessions and resists the oily shine that often develops on ABS plastic over time.
