Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for Cherry MX switches and most MX-style mechanical switch clones.
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The legends are solid, so they will not allow backlight to pass through the characters.
The doubleshot and tripleshot molding processes ensure that the legends are physically part of the keycap structure. This prevents the characters from fading or wearing off over time, even with heavy daily use.
The Cherry profile is a popular, sculpted shape that is slightly shorter than the standard OEM profile. It is widely favored for its ergonomic, comfortable feel during long typing sessions.
These keycaps are crafted from durable PBT plastic, which is known for its resistance to shine and its textured, matte finish compared to ABS plastic.
